Saturday morning

It is slightly disconcerting when you are peacefully sleeping at 3:00 in the morning to be abruptly awakened by the arrival of four wet and cold paws on your bottom. It is probably this which accounts for the fact that I've been awake more or less since then and dispatched The Builder down to make tea at 04:45! Mind you, he was awake too. The arrival of a cold and wet cat snuggling up next to him at shortly after 3:00 had seen to that :-)

It is cold and wet, wet, wet this morning. Were it not for the fact that the trees are a gentle, early green you might be excused for thinking it was early November. I am giving serious consideration to turning the heating on. I blame The Builder. He bought a summer dressing gown this week and alerted the Weather Dogs to the run of sunny, warm weather we've been having.

So a rethink of the weekend's plans. Probably no gardening. We almost certainly won't go to the Belper show. Not sure about the Open Farm Sunday tomorrow. Depends on what the Weather Dogs do.
