Despite all of the rain and molding of my garden there seems to be much in bloom at the moment. Things are becoming quite over grown and crowded but it is just too wet to be messing around. Everyday something new is bursting forth, adding even more colour and excitement. I can't wait for a few dry days so I can just get out and play!
