After weeks of settled dry weather ...

.... this spring, we moved into summer mode last weekend, putting up the awning on the sun deck, and even having our evening meal "al fresco" , thanks to the clocks moving forward to summer time.  Monday was lovely, too, but it has been suddenly back to winter for the last few days, and we have had some much-needed rain.

Today has dawned bright and sunny, so hopefully the grass will start to dry out ... it is growing rapidly at the moment and is in need of cutting again.

Next weekend, we have something of a clash, with our village, and a neighbouring one both holding their spring markets and plant sales.  We take a stall at these to promote our business, but this year it is creating loads of extra work since we need to double up on most of our display materials to cover both venues.  Given how busy we are already, we could have done without that !
