The Sun is Shining

Post by MaryA »

It's a beautiful day here in Lancashire, blue skies and sunshine and not too cold either - everybody must be out and enjoying it instead of posting on our forum, it's sooooo quiet. Enjoy it while you can.

I thought they must all be searching on Lancs online Parish Clerks - unable to get on just now after several attempts.
Perhaps a spell in the garden will clear the air!

It was such a lovely day I went to Formby Pinewoods (NT) and saw 2 red squirrels! Apparently they now have 120 red squirrels so they're coming back. I was wandering around with no coat great!

Glorious weather here - up to 20C in the afternoon. It's strange to think that just three weeks ago we were down to -10C.
Yesterday we saw and heard the cranes flying over, a sign that spring is really on the way. Time to get into the garden! Family history in the evenings.

And in case no one noticed.. it was St David's Day yesterday, a day of celebration in our household because my wife is Welsh to the core.

So to make her feel as though the Spring is here, in addition to our crop of daffodils, I cut the grass front and back. Just under an acre!

Which reminds me...

The spring is sprung, the grass is riz,
I wonder where the birdies is?
The birdies is upon the wing...
Now isn't that absurd?
I always thought the wing was on the bird.

I made bara brith for the language club I help organise so St David's day was celebrated in France!
By the way, the word for bread in Breton is 'bara'. Not a lot of people know that....
