Easter 2020 in Brewood Hall Garden

Today (Easter Monday 2020) is a public holiday in the UK but this is an Easter like no other I have lived through. Whilst some people (health workers, care workers, retail, transport and other workers in essential services) are heroically risking their lives to continue working, the remainder of the population must remain at home by law (apart from limited exercise outside or obtaining essential shopping). Even Churches and other places of Worship are locked. This is because of the virulence and lethality of the new disease Covid-19 which has disrupted the whole world, causing myriad deaths and untold misery, against which 'social distancing' is currently our defence.

I am very fortunate as I have a garden I can spend time in. The cherry blossom just now would delight any Japanese and there are signs of new life everywhere. The sun is shining today but the wind is strong, keeping the temperature at 8 degrees Celsius here, although a couple of days ago it was a balmy 16 degrees.

A few pictures below are intended to give hope for the future in these unprecedented times. There are more pictures in the album here.
