I was still tired from my marathon gardening session at the weekend, and as the weather was so lovely I gave myself the day off today. Glorious sunshine, birds singing, a light breeze and the perfect temperature for being idle. It's the first time this year that I have dared to put out our grotty table and chairs and hope I haven't provoked a change in the weather by doing so. I have even been rash enough to take the bubble wrap lining out of the greenhouse and put some plants out to harden off. I prepared my shady corner so that it was ready and waiting for me by the time I had finished a few chores. Note the black sketchbook in which I intended to make notes and drawings of amazingly clever ideas for future work - instead, I have been really lazy and simply enjoyed my surroundings, read my book, and it has been wonderful. I have been watching the tadpoles, many of which have now developed their back legs, and I've only just discovered that they have wonderful irridescent colouring on their undersides.
Isn't it annoying when the neighbours stare at you when you are sitting in the privacy of your own garden?!!I'm going out there again for some more - hope we get a few more days like this before we have a return of still needed rain.
