A Grumble

I can't believe how cold it still is. I know I shouldn't expect more but it was freezing when I took Fudge for his evening walk.
After a few days of tempting warmth and sunshine earlier in the week, the sort of weather that makes one think of casting clouts even though May is not out, it's back hailstones and icy breezes.
And the farmers have been out again - a dreadful odour of slurry hung over Dundalk today and I could even smell it when I got home from work.

A great shot of the dramatic sky. Great description of the weather - we had the same including the smell for one day. V

Another great sunset pic Mairead. There's a slogan going about here - "if you ate today, thank a farmer". So slurry may have its uses.

that's an impressive sky, pity about the temps though...the smell of slurry sounds a worry..

The old rhymers knew what they were on about when they talked of casting clouts :-)

Lovely big sky - thinking of the silver lining I still don't have to cut the grass:-)

The weather may have been terrible but I can't tell it from this dramatic and beautiful sunset. Love the colors and swirling clouds. V.
