Bluebell day

At last I get to post a bluebell - hooray!  I really thought I was going to miss it this year, which would have been a shame.  Also in Extras is a blip of Hazel on our early walk.  The only other thing I've done today of note has been to sit in the sunny garden with my sis drinking tea while Jax and Hazel had a gentle game of my-human-loves-me-more-than-yours-loves-you!

Back to the bluebell.  I read in the paper a week or two ago that bluebells were 31 (or was it 39?) days late flowering this year and had only just begun.  What??  A week ago they hadn't just started, they'd peaked (at least round here) which is why I was so delighted to come across this winsome little number.

Hope your Sunday's been a good one  xx
