Buttercups . . .

. . . and dark clouds.

We suddenly decided to go out for Sunday lunch. I felt G needed a break from marking, although, when I went up to tell him I wasn’t cooking, I found him watching cricket!

We can only go in one direction at the moment - north from Appleby. Still, we used the backroads and I was surprised to see so many buttercups around - hedgerows full of them, fields full of them. A good year for buttercups.

A day of sunshine and showers.
