Rain rattling down now. Glad I got out early. Always a nice feeling knowing you avoided it.

Morning all, went for another pre-breakfast binocular wander this morning, cool and grey but utterly delightful, so fresh and green, so much birdsong. I’m discovering so many nooks and crannies and hidden views in the local woods and hillsides, and pretty much having them all to myself. I saw more deer than people. Perfect !

I love this time of year. Wish we could have April, May and June then back to April again and miss out the rest of the year!
Same here but without the earache.

Same around here, busy getting the silage in. Big green monster tractors and trailers on single track cycle routes. ☹️
Got the rain now. ☔️

Started off a typical West Highland morning. Damp, mild and bit misty and very little wind. Perfect midgy weather. Northerly wind has risen now and getting colder and forecast for tomorrow is max 9*C. I have cabbage plants to go out so will wait a couple of days before planting out. Gales for Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. Not nice.

As we say round these parts there’s more runny noses than straw hats about today.It was a it parky this morning.
Well that was an interesting walk. We walked to the Spar and decided to explore another route. We were busy jangling while turning down various paths and alleys, when we suddenly realised we did not have a clue where we were. Lots of the paths just fizzled out into dead ends. OK, the Spar is less than a mile nornally so we can't exactly get lost but we just did not recognise anything.
So.... we decided "lets do a left and try this way". We found a school we didn't know existed** and then..........came out on a path DIRECTLY OPPOSITE the close adjoining ours
.
**we were at the back of the school so din't recognise it
.
It turned into a very, very long 2 miles as we then still had go to the Spar.

Bonjour. I am doing all the shopping at the moment as my wife won't go to the shops, so she gives me a list every time and always says before I leave: " Go easy with the money" as I also pay with her bank card.
When I got back from Aldi today, she told me I spent too much although I stuck to the list ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, but also added a few other things she might like.
To my defence, I easily give to temptation with food especially when I'm not paying.
As the lokdown is relaxing, she may decide to do the shopping herself next time.
Off for a bike ride now as I believe it might be raining for the rest of the week.
