The first of many.....

Our first lunch out in the sun this year... hooray !!! A glorious sunny day with temperatures around 19c. Got the cushions out to air but no umbrella up yet, I want to feel the warm sun.
Ham buns, salad, coleslaw & a few crisps & with the morning papers in front of us we really enjoyed this first this year!
Harry's next job is to power wash the chairs & table, get rid of all the green & bring them back to new.

British summer time starts at 2am in the morning so we all loose an hours sleep but lighter nights tomorrow !!!

Al fresco dining at its best! Warm enough for that here too. The warmth is so welcome at this time of the year.

[Judith Greenwood]

We need to power wash too but I'm not sure we're allowed with the hosepipe ban. Looks like a lovely lunch - a bit posher than mine which was a do it yourself roll and nowt else!

[Carole]

It is so good to be able to venture out without hats and gloves, I welcome the sunny days too. Nice sunny shot :-)

[Janet]

Pat , this is my kind of day - great shot I feel like I'm sitting right there with you !!

[Myrna O'Hara]

So good, so yummy, so summer in March.

Your lovely home and sunshine go together!! How gorgeous and inviting this is! Makes me smile. :)

[Sarah Bremner]

Lovely light and great to get fresh air! Now off to bed so I don't miss out on my hour!

[Margaret Gozzard]

nice feelings with the change of season

[Sue Wilde]

Lovely fresh photo.

[Taephy]

Oh, that all looks very, very lovely and I am going green with envy at yr lovely weather....19C sound good! it's probably 35 here. If we eat outside like that we will get sunburnt...haha

[Rick Schies]

Oh my, it looks so inviting Pat. Cannot wait

[Linda]

Lovely!

[tsingtao]

let us hope this is only the beginning....as for the clocks..the war has been over for 60 odd years farmers no longer bale hay on carts or use horses to work the land messing up peoples lives is wrong,but then again, is not that parliament is for....sigh

[Pat Knowles]

@tsingtao Thank goodness no more carting hay on carts...I have done a bit of that in my time, back breaking work !! Loved the smell of honeysuckle though as we wended our way along the farm track in the evening !!

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Wonderful POV and atmosphere captured here!
It was actually warm enough for bikinis yesterday here.....cloudy today so not bothering!! ham bun sounds delicious to me!

[Diana Moss]

How nice to be able to eat outside in March

[Barbara Paquette]

We are back to cold and dreary after our very warm spell. This looks so inviting! I don't dare put up our awning and bring out the patio furniture, we are still able to have a doozy of a snowstorm through mid-April that could take it all down.

[Louise]

It certainly is an occasion worth a photo and this really captures it very well, your lunch looks so inviting! We ate outside at Culzean Castle but the lunch wasn't as nice as yours looks.

[Phil Howcroft]

it as a great weekend for the weather Pat. your image has a feel good factor to it...lets hope we have lots of el fresco meals between now and the autumn

[James Verdi]

Great catch. Lunch outside is the best. We went to *summer time* three weeks ago. It makes for a much more enjoyable evening.

[fife]

Yum!

[Margo E. Dearbhail]

sunshine and yummy food.. my kind of day!

[Barbara Bowman]

Looks very nice, wish I was there.
