Bursting out.

Maybe not the most exciting photo to look at but new shoots on roses are so full of life, vitality and anticipation of what lies ahead.

At one stage today I was warm enough to dispense with my woolly hat and, after a while, got the feeling that my hairless head was starting to catch the sun. I will have to invest in 2018's first sun cream soon.

After work it was great to visit the special lady with the lovely smile and walk the dogs in the light.
