Today in Scotland was the warmest March day since records began. (Mind you, I think they only began in 1958 or something.) The sun shone from a cloudless blue sky and the noisy child in the next street only shouted "CanniBAL! CanniBAL!" for about ten minutes and then stopped.

Spring is definitely springing.

We worked in the garden in shirtsleeves and were still a bit hot.

It was very pretty.

But very childless, what with one being in Perth, another being in London and the third (plus baby) being in - well, the baby was in Worcester with his dad and other paternal relations but his mum was in Cardiff at a Doctor Who convention. Strange but true. Anyway, none of them was here which made the nice sunny day somewhat of a quintessence of dust. Sulk.
No Sulking Mrs. Life! It was a beautiful day in your garden. I'm crossing my fingers that this is a harbinger of the summer ahead -- sunny and beautifully warm!!!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are so pretty! We have had a mild summer here, locals who have lived here for a long time are saying it means we will have a cold winter.
ReplyDeleteBut you had Mr Life and a lovely garden....
ReplyDeleteYour Spring garden is looking wonderful. Cheer Up!
ReplyDeleteBut at least you have that gorgeous garden filled with beautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteA quintessence of dust- what a fantastic phrase! I'm going to try to slip it into conversation whenever I can! Love Penny L in Dorset xx
ReplyDeleteWell, I did pinch it from Shakespeare, who used it more appositely, I must admit. But thank you.
