    Thanks laides. 
    I'm glad to say she got out of there as quickly as she could and DIDN'T  get her phone out to record it as so many seemed to have done.

    I'm sorry about your friend @punkdoc I do that with an old school friend. The in-between years just fall away.

    Gorgeous crocuses @chicky

    Been bogged down with paperwork and computer work, bills and making sure as much as possible is paid by direct debit or standing orders, can never remember the difference, water, EDF, council tax etc. Also preparing and sorting the reports for the Church annual meeting in a couple of weeks. I'm the secretary.

    It's a lovely day so I'm off into the garden in a minute. I hope the French flower garden, which is quite big, will still look good, just stopping doing veg and pots this year. Need to be freer because of OH's hip replacement. Found an English chap with horticultural training who, hopefully, will come to do a day's blitz later this month. I normally do quite a bit in March but we'll be in Norfolk for 2 1/2 weeks. House sitter will be here then for the horses. There are 2 daffodils and about 3 little iris out. Daffodils aren't normally out yet. I must clear dead vegetation from around the snowdrops.

    @punkdoc, it is surely a sign that we're not still 27 when our friends start going, but we need focus on the treasured memories they've left behind from being part of our lives. 
    Hugs to you.

    Sympathies to those bereaved. 
    So glad your daughter not involved @Hostafan1, but still a nasty experience.
