Multiple Weathers Day

Out with Bella this morning, more daffodils finally in full bloom - at this rate, the daffodil fair at Mells over Easter will actually have some daffodils on show this year!
A nice show of heather. 
Thorn blossom is coming out all over the valley.
Walked down to Larkhall to get a spot of shopping, as the sun came out and the skies started to brighten up over Solsbury Hill. 
St Saviours Church looking suitably Gothic. 
Passed Larkhall Garage, where the van awaits its turn to be looked at next week. 
On the way back home passed this horse deposit on the road - reminded me of tales my dad used to tell of people rushing out with shovels to collect it for their roses when he was a child (how much truth there is in that, I'm not sure…). A passing motorist reversed to have a discussion with me about it! A dog owner who wondered why so much fuss wasn't made about horse mess - it takes all sorts.
Ben and Lena arrived after being help up in traffic and we had a lovely lunch and afternoon while the weather went through sunshine, hail and rain in the space of a couple of hours.
This day a year ago, we were down at Alice Park with Bella admiring this dogwood.
