Outside and in!

In the last few days these beautiful deep red peonies have come into bloom.  Had to take a picture of them today. 
Some of the stems with buds were down on the ground or at the back of the plant by the green house where they wouldn’t be seen so I cut them and brought them in on Friday, they too have now opened.

We had a very nice service at church this morning, our Rector Richard really is a good speaker, though our other regular preachers are very good too. At the end we went outside and sang two hymns. As long as we are well spaced out there are apparently no restrictions on singing outside. Think our noise was mainly drowned out by passing traffic thank fully!
