My apple tree is full of blossom at the moment.  It is very short lived so thought I'd better blip it.  Its been quite a warm day today which pleased my neighbour as he was able to wear his shorts!    Had a good chat with him and his little dog Ellie who just so happens to be celebrating her fifth birthday today!  So had to give her one or two birthday treats.  Had a torrential and very noisy downpour this evening.  First heavy rain for a while.  I'm so glad I got half the grass cut in the afternoon.
