Like: "Oh to be in England now that April's here ..." or is it now that Spring is here?
And "April showers bring May flowers ..." Well, that one seems to be quite true.
Today is a bit of a red letter day.
I am observing an old Australian tradition - I have hung washing outside on the washing line!
That was when I came to stop and look at all those May flowers. Our yard is a bit of a mess, all jungley and overgrown with weeds ...
but they are such pretty little weeds.
Being a good Oz, Peter headed off down the street to find our car and wash it - no outside taps and hoses here, just a good old bucket and sponge.
And then he did the British thing - off with the shirt and out catching some rays.
(Hee hee! He doesn't even know I took this one!)
The whole area certainly looks a lot nicer now that the trees have (many-coloured) leaves. This is the more ostentatious end of Unthank Road - all big houses with extensive gardens and no one needs to park in the street!
Our tight little corner is much nicer too now that the trees are all leafy.
