It's May, the loveliest month of the year, a thought I've held ever since reading the Bobbsey Twins Annual when I was a girl.....sometime ago now!
They must have included a summer story about having fun, the lovely weather and the activities they were getting involved in; I simply cannot remember.
What I do recall is the glorious feeling this story engendered, the warmth of the weather and of the friends being together, the soft air, the light breeze playing about one's ears, and the gentle sun warming everything up.
As it is today, right here and now. and it's just absolutely glorious. We have had a few lovely May times over the last few years and, unfortunately, some of them has left us bereft, for the summer has simply not materialised. And this is a great pity of course, for we all need the warmth of a lovely summer to cure all the ills visited upon us by the winter months. This winter, being even longer, colder, wetter and more horrible than some previously endured, has left us doubly in need of a good summer, and of last lasting period too, just to see us right - so to speak!
So let's hope this warm moment does not leave us chilly in our summer.
So, let's make hay while the sun shines, particularly this Bank Holiday weekend, just here now, and enjoy what is now ours to enjoy.
April has simply flown past and busy too, with colds and blogging and cooking and goodness knows what!
So happy weekend to everybody and toodle oo for now
Daisy
