Monday it had to be said was a overcast shower-laden kind of a day here although I did get out, getting a little damp where ones padded waterproof jacket cut off exposing the bottom of my shorts and legs to the elements.
That somewhat damp month we had as you can see in the picture above has helped a lot of things to come out such as the dandelions ready to disperse their seeds and nettles which obviously one has to be mindful of having caught myself a few years ago out hiking by one next to a stile.
This lush vegetation was near the canal where a variety of insects were seeing hovering about as I keeping my eye out for gnats and tics both of which are bad news if they get on me being prone to strong reactions.
Whatever things may come to make getting out difficult, whatever extra steps you may need to take just doing so I feel is well worth the effort.
