Rain stops play

After a glorious, bright, eye-squintingly clear weekend, today, the day of the annual school trip in montagne, is grey, cool and threatening rain. 

Good for the 100+ newly-planted basil plants, not so good for the eager, packed-lunch dotties who flew down the hill in an excess of expectant energy. Cancellato is a difficult word to spell when you're 6, and an even more difficult one to get over when you're not-quite-5. 

Life's tough.

    I guess that's news where you are. Not where we are, especially on a Bank Holiday.
