Blue eyes, blue skies

Today was supposed to be rather dull but it's been absolutely glorious.  And everywhere on the chalk hills around here there is hawthorn blossom  and  literally millions of these tiny speedwells (sorry, you'll have to ask someone more expert what kind - possibly germander?).  I love the flecks of white, the stripy petals and the way the blue joins up with the sky and almost overwhelms the green of the grass.  How could they not make you happy?

Apart from that the day has consisted of lazy gardening and sitting round talking and eating lunch in the sunshine.  Ah, bliss!

Hope your day's being all you hoped it would be  xx
