Sunshine-y afternoon

It POURED this morning. We've had so much rain the last three weeks, I wonder when it is going to stop. Although it's really good since we have a hosepipe ban due to not enough rain. Thames water (our water supplier) said "...it hasn't really stopped raining since we imposed 'hosepipe bans' on April 5. We are alive to this irony, and our contribution to the endless talking point that is the British weather." -source

But it did clear up this afternoon. It was actually nice and sunny with a warm 16C. A temperature we haven't had in a while.

Lots of forget-me-nots everywhere

Are these bluebells? Lots of them too!

So I decided to quickly mow the lawn. Here you can't be thinking you'll mow it next weekend. It might rain next weekend. It's quite likely that it will. It might rain in an hour's time actually. So I got right to it and even did some work in the veggie patch too. Planted out some of the lettuce plants, not all since I'm not trusting the weather yet and want to see how they adapt to life outside in the British climate. I also sowed some radish seeds.

Apple blossoms

I promise to have some none-gardening blog posts over the weekend!
