Good morning......

We certainly had some of the high winds yesterday and so much hailstone in the late afternoon and evening, I was at my Grandsons for tea and he lives just below Rivington, the beginning of the Pennines. The log burner was a welcome sight with the rain outside.


Going home after a lovely meal, he tried to hold the umbrella over me as I dashed to the car but it turned inside out 3 times in a few feet lol...I was soaked. When I got home ( approx 5 miles ) it looked as if it had not rained for ages as the roads were dry and not half as windy!
I am joining this picture in with Annie's smiles, normally on a Friday, so I am unsure if I am early or late lol........Thing is, I won't be around next week.

I could not beliveve what I was seeing at weekend as I drove through a local village. how can we have daffodils at this time of year and "Up North " as well !! These should not be out until March....

Someone had weeded just around them to help them through the tangle of grass. They certainly made me smile and I hope it stays warm a few weeks for them...... How brave.



Thank you for your visit and I hope you find some smiles in your life this week

Hugs Tilly x

Wow daffodils flowering in November, I have a hebe who has not stopped flowering for around a year and another one who flowers in the summer flowering, is in full bloom. I don't think nature knows what time of year it is, it's mild down south today feels like September not winter.
I know the weather at the weekend was bad but it's was even worse for you, glad you got home safe, I hope the weather improves and the wind blows itself out.
Take cae
