Belatedly April seems to have remembered it is supposed to be the month of showers and has turned grey and damp. I am hoping it’s not going to beg too many days from May, the month associated with flowers in the rhyme, to catch up with its pecipitation quotas.
Anyway, I decided to try and photograph the fritillaries in the garden. March’s winds were making them rather bouncy and the flowers weren’t always quite where I thought they were going to be when I clicked.
The wall looks nice though.
Tomorrow the plan is to head east when I finish work at lunchtime. I shall check the forecast before my final decision, but it would be nice to spend a few days afloat and to celebrate my birthday with MasterB and selected visitors in the quiet of the Cambridgeshire fens.
Hope the weather is kind to you, Isobel, and you’re able to spend a few days afloat celebrating your birthday, on whichever day it is. M and I will have a lovely time over the next few days raising a glass to toast you each evening after our day’s cycling.
It is Friday, but by all means feel free to toast me every evening of the year!

Big hugs
Thanks Maria I shall do my best. It is also the second anniversary of Mum’s death. I was at the boat then, so it seems the right place to be on this date.
Have a lovely birthday enjoying the fritillaries, or even aquilegia or columbine 🙂
Thanks Gilly.
Ah yes. I was trying to remember whose birthday it is on 1st May. I hope the day goes the way you’d like it to. See you on your return.
Thanks Octavia. Might have to break open a bottle!
I hope the weather is kind to you but have a fabulous time wherever you are xxx
Looks like a mixed bag of weather; some sun, some rain, maybe a storm. Should head off in a couple of hours. I have some post with handwriting that looks like yours!
The wall makes a lovely backdrop to my favourite flowers
I am still far better at photographing the wall than I am the flowers…
Oh I hope you have a great and peaceful time floating on the boat Isobel! I will wait till tomorrow to wish you a very Happy Birthday!
Thanks Pix. Leaving in five minutes. Just caught up with work emails. But I shall have to catch MasterB!
Have fun Isobel!
Happy birthday, Isobel. Your life has brought me lots of enjoyment – and I am so happy that our internet paths have crossed.
Thanks Pat. That is a lovely thing to so. I am glad our virtual paths have crossed too.
