San Gottardo

San Gottardo the feast day of the patron saint of Carmine Superiore, has dawned bright, beautiful and dry.

San Gottardo, I should explain, operates in much the same way as St Swithin. They say hereabouts that if it rains on San Gottardo, it will rain for forty days. 

Phew!

It finally rained here today hope that does not count, big spots and a few rumbles of thunder, no good for the garden!

40 days? That's a little too biblical plague like for me!
