What a wonderful day, the best so far this year - nice and warm with a
pleasant breeze.


Not a wonderful day here. We had rain am, turning to monsoon,
followed by a five hour continuous storm of thunder and lightning. Poor
dog is a nervous wreck. Also it was perishing cold.

We're having Camelot weather atm. Rain at night and then sun during
the daytime, though we had a quick shower at lunchtime yesterday. It
did the same last night and has dawned sunny but with quite a thick
mist, so the whole area looks like a Chinese painting. Long may this
pattern last but being Devon...............!

Before the Chinoiserie I had conjured up "The Hounds of the Baskervilles".
It looks like we might get one of those syrupy warm days here and there are
signs of people dusting off the rusty barbeques.
