June is bursting out all over…
Yes, finally the weather has turned, we hope, and just in time for the children’s half term holiday. It has been a glorious day on the MPLR and we found Bill Goodie, Reserve Manager, having a day off at home in the garden.
Mind you, he is never without his binoculars, on the lookout as always for that elusive Guffinhawk. But, he still has time to show us his lovely bed of rhododendrons and we can see just behind him his foxgloves.
Even though the building work has already been started at the station there has been a few visitors to the MPLR and this year we have an added attraction of Mario’s Ice Cream Cart. Mario and his young son Luigi will be with us during the summer months selling their delicious hand made ice cream all over the MPLR.
It’s lovely to see so many people enjoying the sunshine at last.
This pair seem familiar?
Mario is very generous with his portions and there was a rumour that Miss Pugh was seen this afternoon enjoying a large one! What a lovely start to the summer.
