    Dandelions!!!!!

    As you enter our village there is a little paddock tucked back from the road slightly - but still visible from the road.

    I usually drive past as it's on a very twisty little section of road with blind corners and nowhere to stop/park.

    However, I was out on the bike tonight having been to the plot to water and thought I'd stop and take a piccie of this little spot.

    Now, see if you can count them...

    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.

    What would Vedder do?

    That is fabulous, HW - all the dandelion clocks on my plot have been decapitated by the strimmer!

        On my bladdy lawn - we live about half a mile from there.

        T'other night it was like snow - though the little 'fairies' were smaller, so probably weren't dandelions.

          I know high summer is here when the down from the lime trees is descending in clouds of fluff - how lovely!

                Poole and Bournemouth councils have waited until all the dandelions have gone to seed before cutting the grass so there should be a few more zillion plants for everyone next year.

                      That's really pretty but I now have a massive urge to run through the middle of it and release the fairies

                      I noticed the verges on either side of one of the roads into our village was thick with sunny orange heads the other week but nothing like those - it looked really pretty. Far nicer than fag / crisp packets anywho!

                      I like dandelions so not to worried about spreading them - sorry!

                          Looking at that picture made me want to run through that field with my arms out!
