<p style="text-align: justify;">As we arrived at Hodnet Hall it started to rain. This didn&#8217;t matter as we intended to have lunch before going for a walk. Lunch, as always was delicious and the rain had stopped by the time we were ready for our walk.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The rain fall had enhanced the vibrancy of the garden colours leading to our walk being especially enjoyable.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Much later in the afternoon the heavens opened which meant we got a bit soggy walking to and from a family visit.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars… and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers &#8211; for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are.</strong></p>
