Summers day in England?



It has been pouring with rain for days now. Gray skies all day long. When the sun does decide to grace us with its presence for a few minutes we celebrate and sit outside to soak it up while we can. This is part of our life now and surprisingly it doesn't bother us one bit. The only difference is that we appreciate sunshine so much more now.

It is just a little bit irritating to hear about the good weather the Capetonians have been having for days now while it's supposed to be winter there. Guess we know who stole the sun then!

The garden is loving it though. We do have the occasional hot sunny day and that mixed in with buckets of rain means everything in the garden is growing at top speed. We've made a few salads with the lettuce from our garden. The courgettes and squash have started flowering too. I'll get a picture once it's drier outside again. They predict rain until Thursday so hopefully we'll have a sunny break over the weekend!
