Sea Of White Under A Canopy Of Green

A relaxing morning doing chores and bits and bobs around the house. I had my (usually) daily call to Dad this morning. He’s doing really well and seems relatively happy under the circumstances..his view is that he has his paper and milk delivered and his tv and radio so he doesn’t have too much right to complain. His local village have a great network of care and he has someone to do his shopping and collect his prescriptions etc. He goes for a walk most days and often stops and chats with his friends in the village across the street or through their windows.

After lunch Eldest and I went for a walk. We went up into the bluebell woods, but most of the bluebells were past their best. The wild garlic, on the other hand, was in it’s prime. It looked spectacular and the smell was incredible....it was a real sea of white under the green canopy.
