Just across the road from mum and dad's house is another tree planted the same day. It always bursts into leaf a couple of days later than our one and hangs on to its leaves a few days longer at the other end.
I loved all the wild flowers growing around its base and the little swing.....which I don't think has been used for quite a while!
Three good things
1. A gentle day at school
2. Sunshine almost all day
3. Off for an early to bed night!
