"Don't cast a clout until May is out" - is what they say in Blighty.
Here they say until the 40th day of May.
And with good reason.
Today it's cold. It even rained for about a minute this morning.
And oh joy, the pollen's arrived.
Almost election time :-)
Two months to voting in the local elections so they've been and sprayed the weeds on our street and announced the addition of a new 1,000,000 litre water tank for the water treatment plant.
Finally we have the new ad in Google Vacations.
It's a way to book via Google Maps etc. without going through an agency.
It's not very pretty as yet, but should take shape over the next couple of weeks.
The forecast now says we will get a little rain the coming week. I believe we've seen the end of the arctic winter weather. Until the end of March we can't be sure it won't get cold and wet again, but the worst is now behind us. In two weeks time we'll be into programmed maintenance (lots of paint fallen off etc.) and then I'll open and heat the pool for the season.
Watch this space...
