Dirty feet happens often at the moment. I sound like a broken record saying "put your slippers / shoes / wellies on!" Ironically, it was me who stood on a thorn in the garden (which went straight through my shoe into my foot) whilst running after Bella with her wellies in my hand.

Everybody out it's stopped raining!

We had a good half an hour outside before there was a loud crack of thunder and another heavy shower. A quick trip around the garden to witness what had changed. The apple blossoms are out, the tomatoes are struggling with these low temperatures even in the green house and the wisteria is creeping across the house. Spring is trying to make an appearance!
