An odd sort of a day weather wise: cloudy and grey, close and heavy atmosphere lifted every now and again by a breeze that shook the trees in the woods. Been a while since we were in the woods too: a wonderful jumble of grasses and flowers, the early spring growth on the trees turning darker and the freshly cut paths giving off that heady scent of mown grass.

Better weather anyway than the days we spent in Yorkshire a couple of weeks ago - stunning countryside of course......




...not to mention some impressive building.....

but wet, wet, dreich and wet. Didn`t spoil the trip though, made a good break despite subsequent car related adventures and can`t recommend highly enough Ingleton Youth Hostel, the Tandoori Restaurant just down the road, the Wheatsheaf Hotel (good beer and chips) and the Inglesport Cafe (good breakfast and wi-fi!).

Back to work, putting in the hours before the one and only festival this year :( but there`s always walks....oh, and swimming. Started swimming again. Should have done it ages ago!!
