Eily’s Report – 27th May

Dia is mhuire diobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.

If we’re not on our knees, well we should be, to thank the Good Lord for the lovely rain and we still need more. The beautiful warm sunshine of the past number of weeks was a joy. Crops grew like never before, silage was harvested. Fruit trees and flowering shrubs weighed down with blossoms while we lived it up in summer style.  Greeted by the sun every morning, wearing summer attire which hadn’t left the wardrobe for years. The long spell gave us the perfect opportunity to shake off the blues and build a store of goodness which can only be got from the sun which will, le conamh Dé. sustain us for the months ahead. But sadly the signs were beginning to show. Places were turning brown and water going low. Which can be a concern judging by what we see in other countries. But the tide turned and the rain came .It fell slow and soft ,gave itself time to be absorbed by the earth, and refresh everything again. An answer to prayer if ever there was one.
