Quick blog before tea

Hi. I do love a cup of tea and a piece of cake, don’t you? For me the tea is usually English breakfast or occasionally Earl Grey, with semi skimmed milk and no sugar. I have caffeine whereas David has decaffeinated. I don’t know why really as he drinks Diet Coke which contains caffeine, butContinue reading “Quick blog before tea”

Snowdrops and Camellias

Hi. I took this shot above of the beautiful snowdrops in my garden today. Aren’t they lovely? Isn’t it amazing the detail you can get with an iPhone camera? There are a few clumps of snowdrops. They’ve only just come out properly, later than a lot of my neighbours’ for some reason. I was alsoContinue reading “Snowdrops and Camellias”

It’s Fit February

Hi. Are you ready for Fit February? The decluttering challenge of January is over.. 204 items of stuff left my house. Bye bye stuff, good riddance. I still have a lot of stuff, but it’s time to accept where I’m at with that and to change it up a bit. I’ve decided that February isContinue reading “It’s Fit February”

My favourite daffodil, 36th February!

Hello folks. Let me start by explaining 36th February… well, actually, I have no explanation. David woke up on Friday morning and his bedside clock was like this…(excuse the blurry photo).. Friday 36th February?! How weird is that? My clock meanwhile was 10 days’ behind showing 26th February. Oh well, panic over, the clock hasContinue reading “My favourite daffodil, 36th February!”

So whose round is it anyway?

Hi there. I am getting very excited about coming out of lockdown. More specifically I am getting super excited about going to a pub garden for my birthday in April. I have taken the week off work, week beginning 12 April, and plan to visit a different pub or restaurant outside each day in WindsorContinue reading “So whose round is it anyway?”

Crocuses, snowdrops, daffodils

I am so in love with my crocuses. Aren’t they wonderful? The snowdrops are just perfect too, don’t you think? My daffodils are still not out yet, but there are a few around locally looking gloriously cheerful. This bunch will be good when they come out, looking promising.. I liked these daisies too. I findContinue reading “Crocuses, snowdrops, daffodils”

The first daffodils

I’m cheating a little bit here, as these are not my daffodils, mine are still in bud. But I was very excited to spot these on my little walk today outside one of my neighbours’ houses. I also spotted some gorgeous snowdrops. I’m still very much into snowdrops. When I got home I also hadContinue reading “The first daffodils”

The rhubarb is coming!

I’ve just had a saunter around the estate, well more of a hobble, but I am walking a little better this afternoon. At last! I still don’t think I’ll be up to going out for a walk for a while. It’s so boring being injured. Enough of my grumpiness! The garden is looking a littleContinue reading “The rhubarb is coming!”
