The first sun for DAYS!

There have been endless grey days again.  And today started dismally.  I wanted to go to the beach but had to wait in for a handyman. He turned up at  15.20 and left at 16.50.  He was working outdoors and had to stop when it was too dark to see! He always turns up hours later than expected!  So I just got this photo of a shrub in my garden that was nicely lit by the sun.  Only with my mobile, as if I went to get my proper camera I think the light would have gone.  I may try again tomorrow with my ''big' camera.

I am so glad 23K people didn't vote for Boris on Thursday.  He tries to shrug off all the accusations about his incompetence by saying the vaccine rollout is wonderful.  But it had been rolled out really slowly over the last few months.  Then last Sunday night he made his announcement about the sudden rapid rollout WITHOUT CONSULTING GP surgeries, pharmacists and lateral flow test suppliers.  So what is happening now is NOT down to our wonderful Boris - it's doctors, nurses, pharmacists. healthcare staff and thousands of volunteers doing their utmost to get people vaccinated quickly.  Why is Boris trying to claim the credit for that?  I don't think he's lifted a finger.  Just ordered everyone else to get on with it, and then trying to take the credit for doing ....what exactly?
