    It's dependent on vaccine supplies isn't it?  Going to be slower thru April then and maybe May till the EU gets itself sorted out.

    Cheerful reason from two days ago when the temperature shot up: I struggle with some areas of dry shade in my garden and decided last autumn to plant a Mahonia aquifolium ‘Smaragd’ in one corner. I sort of knew they were fragrant in flower, but in my tiny walled garden, the effect is magnified. So on Wednesday as I stepped out into the warm afternoon, the whole space was filled with a gorgeous smell of orange-blossom. I think the combination of warmth and the still air was perfect. Now I can look forward to it again in future years.

    Agree with you there @Hostafan1, Sunday evenings are looking good at the moment.

    I'm loving the new series of Keeping Faith on Saturday night ( usually a total wasteland of plap on Sat night TV )

    First cuckoo today.  That's later than last year too, like the swallows.

    Have just picked the first of our asparagus.  Only 4 spears but nice and fat.
