Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

All Gone.

Last night's torrential rain has cleared away the snow. I walked up the hill to collect the car and there were just a few remaining drifts along the hedgerows in the fields. It was generally quite misty and there was an interesting cloud of mist? rising from the snow at the top of the field. The garden is ringing with the sound of birds, twittering, cawing, whistling etc. Do they think it is spring?
Across the stream at the back of the house the first daffodil which was flowering on the 30th Dec has survived the cold weather. A quick walk around the garden revealed some celandine flowers and a grape hyacinth almost open. Off now to Bristol.
