Just to make you smile - and me!

Only thing missing, the glass of wine.

Ditto!

February must be the month of anticipation. Snowdrops just showing now, and green shoots coming up everywhere. The rhodedendrons are smothered in tight buds, and will remain so for a couple more months. Then it will really go to town along with so much more.

I wonder if I will still be here to see it all again this year?

But first there will be the daffodills, all the way up the drive way, and in the spinney, and all over the garden. Then the blue bells, masses and masses of blue bells. Tulips, the great big opium poppies, delphiniums. Better stop I am drooling.

We did have some sunshine today. But a reminder it is still winter, was snow, wet snow so did not settle, yesterday.

I was going to bath the parrot this morning but we had another house viewing. Thats three in the last two weeks.

What do they say about buses? They all come at once. Same as viewings.

Back to the day job starting Thursday, fully booked till the end of March. (Starting with a lovely couple who stay with us about three times a year.}

In March the daffs will be up and there are so many different ones here, including some that are scented. Just imagine a vase crammed with them. Keep you going through February. Just the thought of it, and the glass of wine can be drunk in any season. Cheers.
