Turn your face to the sun...

... and the shadows fall behind you. Maori proverb.

Do not be fooled. It's 13C here, wet and dismal but... the first sunflower is out and looking all jolly. I started them off in the conservatory and most have been planted outside where they are small spindly things encouraged  ravaged by the wind and rain Irish summer. I kept three inside and they have become so huge I couldn't get them outside if I wanted to! 

I don't know what's happened to the day. A morning WhatsApp with Will 
(23C expected in Bristol), some friends out cycling popped in for a cuppa and had to be given a lift home it was so horrible! And that's about it!
