Monday maths: Bank Holiday + sunshine= joy, pure and simple! I’m having a bit of a Browning moment: O to be in England, now that April’s there! I hope your day is bursting with simple pleasures!

Awoke to Easter Sunday and a very hopeful blue sky this morning after last night’s scary high winds! Thoughts for all in the North, who endured much worse and peace and love to all on what is, for many, a very special day

Good morning precious early birds! One day into a Bank Holiday weekend and, almost inevitably, I can’t be 100% sure which day it is! Whatever the day and date, here’s wishing you your best possible one!

Wishing you a relaxed and happy day!

It’s been such a scrumptious spring afternoon! Happy long weekend ahoy!

Walked Kew Gardens under a rather leaden sky yesterday, but, luckily, the trees were festooned with blossom to illuminate the day! And today we get sunshine too! Spring is definitely the most exciting and effervescent of seasons! Hope your day is bursting with good things!

And just like that, while we were all asleep (well, me anyway), a brand new month crept in, and it’s truly one of the loveliest! A beautiful April to all!

Good morning Tuesday people and a glorious day to you!

Cheery little wren singing his heart out in the garden just now….you might even say sewrenading me! 😂 I do apologise!!!

Good morning to all and a happy, hope-filled week to you!

Yesterday, I’d have been a super-super early bird, posting at this hour, but over night the clocks have changed: we get light evenings and I’m just a regular early bird! Hurrah and hurrah! Wishing you the very best! What will you fill the light with?

Thought for the day (from our walk in Bildeston, #Suffolk, today:

Awoke to a dazzlingly lovely blue sky day! That’s all I know and all I need to know right now! Wishing you a day of simple pleasures!

The loveliest of trees… is all of them right now! Good morning dearest Blue Dot friends and the happiest of Fridays to you and yours!

A stunningly lovely morning on #HampsteadHeath where we fed our flying friends

Good morning. If you know the concept of finding ‘accidental hearts’ … heart shape stones, clouds and so on to see the positive in the world…. I’m offering up the concept of ‘accidental stars’. Gorgeous #hedgerow froth for you. #blackthorn #blossom #bluesky

Good morning early birds! I was up early to discover a day of weather swings and roundabouts: bright but chilly, with the first frost for a while! I don’t know about you, but I’ll gladly sacrifice a few degrees to wake to a blue sky! Hope your day opens (and closes) to similar highs!

Some sunshine if you need it today. Episode 271 - Wild breezes in the reeds (30 mins) Sit with us in the long grass next to tall reeds swaying in the wind. This is a perfect spot on the Hoo Peninsula on a warm day. bit.ly/LenHoo4

Can we get to 4000 followers before our birthday on Sunday? Can you help us to help fill ears with quiet rather than noise. 🎧🦉🌊🌳🐝🌧️🎧

Yesterday’s wind has created snowdrifts of blossom on the pavement and it’s rather magical! Happy Wednesday, wishing you an enchanting day!

Good morning dearest early birds! As a child, I always felt Tuesday was a bright, sunny yellow…which will be particularly helpful on this chillier, greyer specimen of the day! I hope your day sparkles, whatever the weather!

I just heard a rumour of a mini-heatwave over Easter! I don’t even care if it’s wholly accurate as the mere notion of it will see me through what is shaping up to be a chilly week here in London! Here’s to daydreams of warmer, brighter days!

Greetings Springtime citizens and welcome to a brand new week, I hope it treats you kindly!

Good morning Sunday friends! Wishing you a kindly and peaceful day in this very loveliest of all seasons!

Good morning and a happy, healthy, hopeful and peaceful #SpringEquinox to you! I hope the sun shines on you, literally and metaphorically!

First of the street bluebells starting to appear.

Good morning early birds! 6am, the sky is clear and blue and Thursday already has the hallmarks of a beautiful day! I hope yours shines!

Informal weather update: just had to remove my cardigan while mowing the lawn! It is, to coin the vernacular, a scorcher!

Awoke at would be disaster-o’clock were we still in winter, but here on spring’s threshold, it’s just plain exciting! I hope your day is bursting with possibilities!

Good morning (literally today) Blue Sky friends! Tuesday’s looking lovely here already! Wishing you the best today, as always!

Good morning angelic ones! Temperatures set to recover this week so a visit to the gardening centre beckons, though not today as I have errands & also I do like a bit of delayed gratification! Wishing you very much the week you’ve been wanting!

Good morning and a particularly happy, peaceful, kindly day to all mothers (and others) this Mothering Sunday

Baby legend! #Arsenal

Good morning, dearest early birds! This has been the week that saw my pulmonarias bloom, which made me particularly happy because when that happens, I know that the bees won’t be far behind! I hope your day brims with good things!

Violet appreciation post. 💜

Year in Normandy actually. And they are wonderful.

I never, ever tire of seeing David Hockney’s exquisite work up close & so yesterday’s trip to the Serpentine Gallery was a treat: his year in Brittany paintings morphed into one long, Bayeux-type piece! This winter-into-spring section will especially resonate today! Wishing you a super special day!

Ahh! These are the days of blossom and birdsong! Good morning sweet, lovely people!

Woke to beautiful sunlight…and that’s all I want right now! I hope Wednesday meets and surpasses your needs!

Awake to a low, grey, thickly clouded sky, but currently cheering myself up by reminding myself that: A) Look! It’s light at 6.30am! B) There’s dazzling blue somewhere high above the clouds! May your glass be half full today snd every day!

Good morning Monday early birds! A brand new week with even more light on the way! Wishing you a brilliantly lovely one!

Good morning lovely people! Did you know that today is #InternationalWomensDay? Obviously, we deserve more than a day, we deserve all of them…and so do men, children, birds and beasts! Equality, peace and love to all! It could all be so easy!

Woke later than usual after a deep and velvety night’s sleep! It’s light! It’s the weekend! It’s nearly Spring! Too exciting to stay in bed…and yet…just one more page, I think! Wishing you a happy, peaceful Saturday!

Awake to birdsong…it’s idiotically early, light only just beginning to seep into the margins of the sky, but I don’t mind a bit! After the darkness of winter, I’ll take every suggestion of light possible! Wishing you a lovely day, dear early birds (human and winged!)

Today is shaping up to be a real peach! Whatever you’re up to, wherever you are, I hope your day blossoms beautifully!

Just to cement my role as local dippy hippy: this morning a neighbour caught me saying ‘Hello! You look so pretty! Thank you!’ to a pot of violas on my doorstep! Well, why not? Manners should extend to all living things, don’t you think?

Good morning lovely people! For all nature lovers, this is such an exciting time of year! A mild spell brings daily progress in the garden & yesterday I saw my first sweet aubretia flowers! I can relate to how my plants feel too: a little sunshine super charges my spirits! I hope your day sparkles!
