It is such a glorious feeling when the weather finally turns to being consistent enough to shed jeans and socks and enjoy the sun on legs and feet, wearing shorts and sandals. Although the winter has been mild, and although we have had some nice sunny days, it hasn’t been quite warm enough to change… until today!
We went shopping, and then I was in the garden, putting out the washing and doing a little weeding… bare legs loving the sunshine! The birds were all very active and I could hear them whistling and chirruping in the trees around the garden. I’m sure over the next few weeks there will be days when I’m back in my jeans, but I really feel the seasons have changed. I usually last until the end of September when I have to put my legs away for winter, last year we had a wonderful hot October and winter clothes didn’t appear until November.
I hope we now have a pleasant summer, I don’t want to be putting on trousers and boots for a while yet!
