`APRIL SIGHED AND STEPPED ASIDE...


.....and along came pretty little May.`  So said Oscar Hammerstein and he wasn`t wrong.  May is indeed pretty and right now the birds are singing, the grass is growing determinedly thanks to the May flush and flowers are appearing in the gardens and woodlands - at least here in deepest Kent.  What tops it all off is, of course, the fact that it`s bluebell time.

And it reminded me of a holiday we had -one of many - staying in Cornwall`s Roseland Peninsula.  That was a few years ago now before the ravages of dodgy knees and anno domini tightened their grip and we were able to have some decent walks in that magical kingdom.   One of the most memorable was walking the coast path from Rosevine to the beaches at Carne and Pendower.   It`s yet another fantastic walk along a fantastic stretch of coast and as we climbed up the hill towards Pendower we looked back at this bank of bluebells.

I hope my photo did it justice in that it shows pretty little May in the Roseland at its best, with the wide sweep of Gerrans Bay peeling off into the distance - please give it a click and see if you agree.......
