We had a couple of short-lived spells of rain that did little more than
wash the dust from the leaves and encourage the snails to wake up.
Today was sunny with a strong drying wind that counteracted anything
yesterday brought, so it was deep watering early morning and evening as
usual. At least the air is fresher though not by as much as I'd been
led to expect.

And again - what a big difference in a small distance. I know how far it is
from us to David's garden and it's extraordinary how his nearness to the
coast, compared to ours to the moor, changes everything! And yet the
weather with us today sounds very similar to the weather nearer Torquay.
