    Sorry BM.  Only just spotted this.

    OH was already working in Belgium so we stayed in the appartment the company had hired for some of the team who, of course, all went home for the weekend so we had it to ourselves between cleaning visits and cat cuddling.   We took 5 with us and installed them in the house with food, futon and litter trays so they could get used to it before the removals men arrived with all our worldly goods and quite a few plants.

    That sounds a good way to move into another house obelixx, whatever the distance image

     I dont know what is worst, sorting through things and packing, cleaning everywhere before you leave, then having to unpack again (and often more cleaning). Having just helped to get a relatives home ready for sale - sorting things out and cleaning! Would certainly have appreciated breathing space at some point.

    The last two days have been bitterly cold, with sunshine so have spent some time looking through photos of last summer to remind myself of how it looked. The very best, I think, came from  reflections  in the pond.

    Thanks star gaze lily image  always suprised when they turn out to be in focus using the tablet  as it's usually a quick 'point and click! (haven't got round to checking all the techy features)

    granma image no worries. There are a lot of us busy/bizzie people about, it can get confusing.

    Have you ever managed to take a photo of a frosted spiders web? I haven't, but know they can look stunning.
