Saturday 6th 42-62F, dark grey, but clearing and almost calm. The forecast is for sun or no sun. They can't both be right. Opening the door for my walk was to be confronted with weapons grade pig shit. Laced with toxic levels of ammonia with an after-note of a hideously nauseating, chemically mass-produced, lemon scent.The garden is awash with Ladybirds. They are emerging from small stacks of twigs and dry weeds left under the apple trees to overwinter. Provided as habitat for whatever fancies the free accommodation. We were favoured by a robin yesterday but it was typically shy for a European Robin and retreated to watch from a safe distance. Back in Gravely Blighted it would be pitching on our hands and demanding to be fed on freshly dug worms.
Just a walk to the lanes under an obscured sun. The roads were plastered in farmer's best dried mud from the muck spreading and chemical spraying. We might see 16C [60F] again this afternoon. Nice.
Sunday 7th 50-66F! Sunshine from a milky sky. Weapons grade pig shit on the air as I walked to the lanes in light traffic. A slight chill from the easterly breeze. It was a long and warm sunny day. Reaching 66F in the shade mid afternoon. Shopped in the car for a ton of stuff.
