We need some rain now in Dorset, to ensure the bounty of the spring & early summer is fully realised & sustained.

A very strangely lit sky this evening and not a breath of air.
Large water drops are falling out of the clouds but you wouldn't call it rainfall.
Looking out of the kitchen window, the Buzzard across the field in the Raptor Oak looks rather unsettled.

Reminder that today Reform UK are defending 2 seats in by-elections.
Benfieldside and Newark West.
Both caused by their councillors standing down after the local elections just days after being elected.
Taxpayers’ money wasted today to the tune of circa £50k.

Leave the trimmers & strimmers in the shed until Maggie May wakes up in September.
