Here comes the Sun!

Toot and me, forever will be, 'Ship -mates, partners and pals'

Yes at last, the Sun finally came out and beamed down its warming rays for several hours upon our small but jungle-like garden. Toot baked a splendid loaf and we sat on the patio and ate a  fine Mediterranean lunch of cheese, olives, tomatoes, olive-oil, bread, basil and fruit . A full bodied red wine made a fine accompaniment and after we finished our meal we sat happily in the sunshine.


By tea-time the rain had returned and today, sadly, our sky is once more leaden grey. I am surprised the Olympic flame hasn't gone out, what with all the rain.  No wonder England is 'a green and pleasant land' -green because its gone mouldy from damp and pleasant for all the ducks swimming nearby in Oulton Broad! 
On a positive note it is much warmer with temperatures over 20 degrees C, so come on Sun!


I've just checked, 'The Flame' is still burning and currently in Lincolnshire. If you  are interested and want to follow the route around the UK taken by the Olympic Torch you can follow this link
