There was more rain in the last 24 hours and I can see a few more blades of green grass springing up. A few more days like this and Queen Victoria could be looking out across a nice lawn and not a dry savanna.
But I would not bet on it yet. We are near the start of the school summer holidays, and tomorrow, July 15th, is Saint Swithin’s day. It could go either way.
Yes, they’ll all come to meet me, arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It’s good to touch the green, green grass of home.
One is not amused.
