Summer - remember what it feels like?!

An absolutely gorgeous start to the summer down here - the sort of June that I'd almost forgotten we could have! 
So beautiful in fact that I went out yesterday with my camera (the photos are bigger if you click on them). 
That way, when the skies are grey, the trees leafless and the fields muddy I will have something to remind me that sometimes - just sometimes - it can look like this...
Thomas and Paddy are sunbathing...
Felix, Charlie and Bryher are on the new track
Bryher's insatiable curiosity and friendliness get the better of him...
...and he just has to come up and say hello...

I think Felix and Charlie reckon he is a bit precocious
Bryher proves his point...
...several times. I wasn't even asking him to do this, I just couldn't shake him off!
Charlie enjoying the breeze 
Itsy, Wally and Charlie
Time for a drink...
Wally and Itsy coming in for tea...
Charlie, Bryher and Felix doing the same, less sedately...

I'd almost forgotten what it felt like, Bruce :-)

Amanda, I just hope the sun will shine for you when you come!

Thanks Jen - we are certainly not going to take it for granted :-)
