Beautiful day

Have got lots of pictures to download from the last week but I just nipped out and took the sunset half an hour or so ago.

A brief respite from the downpours

The rain stopped today but was always in the background. Thought I'd make the most of a dry day and take the dog ad child to run off some energy on the beach.........ah yes that would be the beaches we aren't allowed on for the next few months. Pisses me off every single year, I know it's coming, I always forget.

We ended up on the cliffs up the road, was lovely but brrr cold. This of course did not hamper K's jumping into every puddle he could find. He was most disappointed he couldn't jump in the sea! He had socks and crocs on though, beach wear not wellies. His feet were blocks of ice within 2 minutes.

Pics from last few days.....

Chickns are fed up with the rain and change in temperature, they've gone from fluffing up in dust baths to needing umbrellas and weights to stay earthbound.

There are some sorry looking beetroot seedlings, pounded by driving rain and winds that have rearranged most of the neighbours garden fixtures and fittings.

Come back spring. It was so cold yesterday I even lit the fire!

Beltane is fast approaching and we are 9 degrees colder than last week, could the weather fairies please get back on the job.

I have to wait a WEEK to get my duff filling replaced :(

The playhouse is almost finished and is getting lots of use! Our neighbours have children the same age as ours so if the last week is any measure of things to come they will be in and out of each others/houses gardens continuously all day. It's trampoline for 5, playhouse for 5, then trampoline again then run next door, then in her playhouse, then on the bikes, back to the trampoline and the playhouse. They don't seem to stop for breath! Crazy.

I made bread bags for all the lovely bread I am addicted to making..... fold tea towel in half, sew up, make a casing at the top for tie. Tea towels were £1 for 3 and the ties were made out of stuff I already had, I do have an eye for the expensive but I love stuff that's almost free!

Took a few pics with the macro lens this morning but half way through the camera started flipping out telling me the lens wasn't talking to the camera or something, eh? for the amount of money it cost I expect them to be able to converse in at least 10 languages.
