Gather some moss

The front lawn which suffered so much last year during the drought has regrown and is now a springy soft mossy bank (above) such as fairies would be happy to dance on.

Spring has leapt into being eerily early this year, with snowdrops, crocuses, daffodils and azaleas all out in full. The words climate change lurk dauntingly in my mind. Will this strange spring finally catalyse every individual to do something about climate change?

Perhaps we are all doing too much. Let's stay still and gather some moss. Read this series of article from the Tablet on leisure and then go and lie down for a while.
