I'm too hot today. And this day is St. Swithin's Day. He wasn't a Celtic saint, but an Anglo-Saxon bishop in the ninth century. There is a myth connected to him. If there is rain today, there will be rain for forty days after this, or if there isn't any rain today, there won't be any rain for forty days. Do you believe that? Perhaps it is true in Winchester but not true in Cornwall. The sun is shining today - will there be drought till September? My flowers (among the ferns) will need water. There are hardly any clouds in the sky. But the sky is not empty - there's a yellow helicopter hovering like a buzzard, then buzzing around like a large perturbed hornet. Are they looking for something? Perhaps they are inspecting the power cables. We had a loss of power earlier.
