Six departments in the South at risk of flooding and we can believe it.

" Alerte meteo, alerte  orange " we all know the rain has been intermittent, sometimes heavy showers, sometimes light, but always on the horizon. Living on the top of a hill we can see the rain  in the distance moving over in black and grey clouds, then passing on bringing the odd bright sky for half an hour if you are lucky. The ground is sodden, the roses and peonies are laden down with the rain and spring, my favourite season has been a wash out. Our renters in the gite  and friends on holiday have had a rotten week. The birds and especially our kestrels are struggling to find food and our usual brood of six baby kestrels if the eggs ever hatch will struggle to survive. I just want to get out in the garden, jobs are backing up, and tell me why "les mauvais herbes poussent" and the tomatoes stop growing ?
The forecast is better for the week end and next week.
