Sunday 27.04.2014

A grey afternoon with spits and spots of rain resulting in damp shoulders and soaking boots (the grass is growing at last)after a quick yomp round the woods. However, it was a positive relief to be able to see more than a few yards ahead after a week of being enveloped in haar and low cloud, while confined to wandering round a small garden as I dog-sat an elderly mutt in a house by a busy main road.

Phew. So,back in the woods today, the birds trilled away in the rain, dogs 1 & 2 made up for a lost 7 days by chasing maniacally after every deer and hare that dared to appear, the golden gorse gave off the faintest scent of coconut and the slate sky made the perfect back drop for the fresh green needles now appearing on the larch. All was once more right in the world....for that short time anyway.
