Rain at Last!

Yes, that's right! We've got rain at last .... and the gardener finally has a smile on her face.

It started to rain during the night and quite a lot had fallen by the time we got up. Then it came on heavy during the morning, until, at lunchtime, it really threw it down. We're hoping that it will continue to drizzle for the rest of the day. We want to get as much as possible as the forecast shows dry, sunny weather for all of next week. Still, gratefull for small mercies.
