Good news and ....

... a morning of unpacking, sorting and local errands & shopping as well as talking to Lucy next door about some work in our gardens when I got a text at 11.30 to say Rufus would be with me inside an hour!

The van with my woofer arrived at 12.15 - an incredible 72 hours after leaving me in Chelmsford.  I don't know who was happier - but it was a very nice cuddlesome greeting. 

By 13.30 the clouds, as yesterday were rolling in and a few thunder claps and by 14.00 it was raining, not torrential like yesterday, nor hail stones either but steady heavy wet wet rain. I told Rufus he'd have to wait for his walk.
By 16.00 he was quite fed up, as you can see.
By 19.00 so was I.
By 21.00 I had cooked mac n' cheese and we were on to our second movie.
Meanwhile, Gareth  was texting me all about the lovely warm sunshine and blue skies that we've left behind....

It stopped raining just after 23.00

So that was April then.
