Sunday funday in the sun Happy Mother's Day

Hello Hello Hivians.

What gorgeous weather we seem to be having in the UK! Can't help but feel there is a sting left in winter's tale yet.

I hope not, and I hope that April showers are confined to the nighttime!

I woke up late today and was sitting up in bed and the sun was streaming in the window. I actually felt quite warm!

Last night though, wow it was blowing a fluffing hoolie.

Cabin fever is something I feel like I had. The last time I went out was on Thursday, the result of trying to shake of this fluffing infuriating cold once and for all. Now I geel better but just tired!

So I went out this afternoon to the shop, I had to get bread for Mrs T's work food tomorrow.

This is what I saw!

Fluffing carnage!

Okay yes I am exaggerating but I am glad I hadn't been dreaming of the wind, it was real and was blowing things around.

It did remind me that bin day is tomorrow.

A doubly whammy in the UK

Today was spring forward day as the clocks went forward an hour, which should make things easier again as some time differences are aligned back to 0.

For example Nigeria and the UK are back to no time difference until October I think.

I was thankful to go out and the wind had gone. So it was quite warm to be honest.

Winter is still what I dress for, so was wrapped up in scarf and dickie and all sorts. On the way back I was roasting, which is a good thing!

The park entrance was really inviting. Which reminds me that I need to be home tomorrow to wait for our latest delivery of swan and duck food.

So I resisted the urge to go into the park, as it was late with the clock springing forward. This was 4.30pm when my body was saying it was only 3.30pm.

The trees are still naked and wearing their winter attire. It does mean that you can take some cracking bird pictures between the branches and twigs.

But that is not the purpose of this post.

However, did you see the black specs in the trees.

Corvids is what I spy!

Branching out

I have observed their branch perching before and I don't know if it is the tree strength but the most you seem to get is 4 ravens on a branch.

It is a royal tossup between 2 and 3 ravens on a branch.

Happy Mothering Sunday

Here in the UK it is Mothering Sunday or Mother's Day. It hs been a few years since my mother passed away, but I treat it like another day to be nice to women, live every day.

Of course it is different to the date for Mother's Day in America.

I can't remember all the countries that celebrate the same Mother's Day as we do.

Irrespective of what day you celebrate I wish all mothers a very happy day ....

... and if your mum is still alive.

Why not call your mum and say you love her.

Thanks so much for popping in and have a great new week!
