Sunny Olde England in October

I planted some bulbs in the gah-den today after completing the gah-dening and a general clean up yesterday. It was very hard to dig through the soil. I heard on the radio yesterday that we have had three straight weeks without rain. Now yesterday, it did rain a bit, but it was more like thick mist for the morning and cleared by the afternoon. We are also having what we Americans would call and Indian Summer. Very beautiful days. I don't know what these Brits are talking about when they complain about the weather! Actually, strike that, I do know. It's a string of such niceness that makes the drizzly dark even worse. Oh how I am not looking forward to December and January, but I am making a mental note of days like today to dream about when I am freezing.
