What is that noise?

I wondered early this morning.  That gurgling in the downpipe. Perhaps Steve is doing some pre-dawn washing.  Perhaps some dirty rotten camper is making use of our facilities.  No, it's RAIN!
Beautiful soft rain
festooning the garden with diamond necklets
and the most delicate crochet.

Other lovely sounds this weekend include ABC Classic playing only women composers.  Last night, 6 hours of Hildegard of Bingen:  https://www.abc.net.au/classic/night-music/music-of-hildegard-von-bingen/10845798  Divine.

  1. Yes, we have had rain too, but sadly no jewelled necklaces or raindrop webs.
    However, in honour of Int Women's Day I got from the library 'Miss Muriel Matters' by Robert Wainwright. The blurb says: The Australian actress who became one of London's most famous suffragists. I have not heard of her but evidently she was the first woman to make a speech in the house of Commons after chaining herself to a brass grille to protest against the segregation of women in Parliament. Go Muriel.
