Rain

What a difference a day makes. The rain finally came this evening when we were walking Pippa down by the canal. This looks quite peaceful but about twenty minutes earlier we were jumping up and down, covered in flying ants. Yes, ants in pants, down shirt, in hair, persistent little blighters. Good to feel the rain, though. I've been loving the wonderful weather but we do need some water. I hope it's raining in Scotland to get the fish running again. Three weeks to our week on the Dee, can't wait.
