Its the 23rd of March and we had our first lunch outside today. Sat on the deck at our new cottage (we have no kitchen in the house right now so we have to use the cottage at meal times – more on that later!) The deck is covered and the deck surface is concrete, so its a real sun trap. People in the know round here reckon that we are about 4 weeks behind in terms of the weather/growing etc, but today it felt like spring to me. To whoever controls the weather – Keep up the good work…
