Symbol of Spring

After the thunder and lighting last night we got a bad hail storm that damage a number of my plants. The only good thing is that we have had a lot so rain over night and this afternoon which will do the garden good as it was getting so dry.

I had arranged to go around to my friends today to see her beautiful white Wisteria.. she said it is always at its best on the November 5. This year it isn't fully out which was good in some ways as the hail would have done a lot of damage. It did do a bit but still looked lovely. I enjoy going to her place as she has some wonderful flowers in her garden.

My friend is a artist and I enjoy seeing her latest paintings. She has been given two free tickets to see Stag Weekend at The Court Theatre on Saturday night and asked if I would like to go with her. Sounds good!
