If you look back through my blogs during \u00a0the winter you may of noticed \u00a0I mentioned rain a fair few times! (Well it did rain a lot and I got a good few soakings on my bike!) I think we have all been fortunate that throughout lockdown the weather has been so good. However, the garden was getting thirsty. I spend some of the afternoon clearing the gutter that feeds one of our water butts to ensure that it refills a bit! Today’s rain is useful! I do hope it doesn’t portend rain when later hopefully some cricket resumes!<\/p>\n
