Who Can Deny the Joy It Brings....

I managed to get up before 11 today, and bimbled outside barefooted to hang some washing out. The air was clear and clean and there was a little warmth in the air.

I could hear seagulls clacking and I glanced around to see whose garden they were attacking. They wouldn't be attacking ours. Bean doesn't let birds in our garden.

I couldn't see any, but I could still hear them, I looked directly up above me. And there they were. Spinning on a thermal.

I started to stagger slightly, so I plonked myself down on the trampoline and watched them for a while.

They were dancing round and round and round, shouting out to each other when they found a warmer burst of air which took them, higher, and faster.

They danced so far, and so fast, and followed the warm air that soon I couldn't see them.


I think the mother ship beamed them up.
