Dandy

...off the mini variety.  Its not the remains of the normal dandelion, but those quite tiny yellow flowers that are all over the place at this time of the year.  Looking slightly wet after the much needed  rain yesterday and overnight.  I used the tripod with this, heaven forbid .... about time I made an effort.
I was ever so pleased this morning to see the internet back up and running albeit slower.  I can put up with the slower internet, but I would struggle with no internet as was the case yesterday.
Our lovely next door neighbour did our shopping this morning, just fruit, bread, buns, and sugar.  The sugar was for Doug, he set to today and made quince jelly and quince paste.  The paste is in the (low heat fan)  oven overnight.
At the end of the day the sun came out and it was rather nice.....we hiked off for a walk.  We met so many neighbours doing likewise, each of course keeping to different sides of the road.
