Yellow Day.

Yellow is today's colour. Yellow sunshine, yellow winter flowering jasmine

and a bright box of 6" high narcissi by the front door providing a cheery welcome. The poor little crocus that looked so pretty are nearly all lying flat on the ground as early slugs have chomped through the stems. I'm so not a fan of slugs.

Chilly first thing in the morning as once more I went out to ping the jackdaws, must get Linas to put more ammo in, but warming up in the sun. I started work on a big overgrown ornamental grass bed which is more of project than a simple weed through. Needs doing as what was originally a gravel covered bed with grasses and large stones tastefully arrayed, has become a big overgrown mess with a few brambles and ash trees growing in it. It will be a little while before it is fit to be shown.

Taught in the afternoon. I had to control my laughter in the phonics session when on being asked to write 'ditch' one little girl mixed up d & b. I also overheard the same child say to her friend in a most outraged voice, as they settled to do their daily task of tidying up the book corner at the end of the day after 2 other girls had decided to have a go at tidying it up. " #### & ### did it and look at the mess they've made of it!"
