Soggy

 Like most of Europe, we are in the middle of wet weather!  As we have light, stony ground water doesn't take long to drain away, but at the moment, we are having so much rain that the valley is now full of water waiting to drain into the river Céou.

Our neighbours' trees are standing in water (but this often happens) but also on the field next to them ...

All of this water draining off the hills then flows in pipes under the 'main' road to the fields in the valley bottom and into the river.

Even our alley has standing water in it ...

but, almost overnight, thanks to this spell of milder temperatures (10 or 11 deg C overnight) Spring has started!
