Today doesn't make me hopeful, but it didn't rain, so that was a start.<br />It has been lovely being out though; and the sunshine gives me new verve for doing new things. A bit of a pain, because all the stuff I want to do means sitting inside at my computer! I'll have to kick my laptop in gear and work on the run.
