    Enjoying been self-employed -  We declared yesterday the start of our Easter bank holiday weekend so we can make the most of the weather 🙂. Lots of gardening on the agenda

    The forecast for the real BH weekend looks cold and grey so I can catch up with all my work then.

    Me too.  We would normally have the doors to the conservatory open and the vent open too on a day like this.  Unfortunately we are currently having the roof replaced with solid so can't do that.  I'd forgotten how warm it gets in here with the doors closed.

    Saw my first butterfly on next door's cherry blossom. A bit far away but I think it was a red admiral😊

    We had five peacock butterflies in the garden yesterday ... all chasing each other as they spiralled upwards.

    The sun’s shining and it’s warm enough to garden in a t shirt 👚
