Wet or dry?

Today has been an odd sort of day. It`s supposed to be early March, still more or less winter, with a good fire making the wood-burner emit a cheery glow to keep the cold and damp at bay. But what do we have?  A warm, sunny day worthy of early summer, washing drying outside, doors open and the wood-burner neglected and threatening to go out.  I was seriously thinking of letting it do so, until it suddenly started to rain at six o`clock,and until I saw, on the local Météo that today`s temperatures of 16 or 17 degrees are expected to fall to 5 degrees on Monday. Crazy weather!
  Which do you prefer, wet or dry? Both have their points. If it`s wet, you have a good excuse to stay in and read a book. The grass and the garden will benefit, no struggle to carry heavy bidons of water to wilting plants. And a nice green lawn is surely preferable to the baked-brown look of my second pic. But wait, what about the gluey mud in the sheep-field that threatens to suck off your wellies, and the muddy footprints left by the cats on every surface... And it`s far more pleasant to walk the dogs in warm sunshine and go out into the cour without a forced change of footwear  No contest, really, the gardeners and farmers will have to put up with it, give me dry any time

  Bye for now, going to see if the dogs night-time walk is wet or dry.
