This colourful map was recently viewed #InTheSearchroom. It is a survey of the Holt estate, Wokingham, by John Smith (no date, late 18th century). We love the attention to detail including all the different buildings. #ColourfulArchives #Archive30

So I didn't quite make it up for dawn and the #hedgemorris (tradfolk.co/performance/mo…), but here is some music for #MayDay, played on my 100-year-old and not-quite-in-tune banjo, sitting by the May blossoms. Doing my bit to bring the summer in (I hope).

It appears from the weather today that summer is not, in fact, about to come in. The only solution I can think of is more seasonal encouragement by means of the banjo. Surely that will work.
