A Sunny Spring Day At Last

Out and about this morning stopped at traffic lights on my way to the dentist.
On the other side of the road, this terrace basked in the sunshine.
At the dentist in Bathampton - a fine looking building, especially when framed by blue skies. 
Met up with Su in Larkhall. While she nipped to the Post Office, I waited outside the New Oriel Hall and admired this display of daisies and dandelions.
All the trees are coming into leaf - after such a miserable six months, it is lovely to see the sun and feel some warmth at last. 
This afternoon I took Bella out for a walk without needing a jacket or jumper for the first time in six months. Lots of flowers to appreciate in the Spring sunshine.
We went down into town this evening, passing this shop that sells Country Cupcakes. Made us think of Jenine and Tina on Symi, where we'll be in just 8 days!
People sitting outside Revolution enjoying an early evening drink in the sunshine. 
The fine willow outside Bath College has burst into leaf again.
We went to the Little Theatre to see a preview of the new film by Pedro Almodovar, "I'm So Excited".  It was mildly amusing with one stand out funny scene, but not his best in our opinion - we agreed on 6 out of 10 as our rating for it. 
This day a year ago, the wettest drought on record was into its full swing. At Prior Park Garden Centre, we noticed this wisteria was very early to be in bloom
