I had a £10 garden voucher in the post from AGMag. for a spring picture from my garden! The weather cleared up and I worked till I could not do any more then took some pictures. still a few late tulips and miniature daffs in pots but it will soon be quaking grass and aquilegia season which I love.
Hi flumpy. There is a message for you in your messages (on your settings page). I have very wet cheeks from crying. And hoarse from singing all the old songs. It was a splendid 70 VE day concert on BBC1, brought back all the memories I had of the war, especially when I was in the entertainment troop that went round cheering up the wounded soldiers every Sunday. We all piled up into an old lorry with our equipment and I had to perform on the long table in the middle of the ward. I kept waiting for a mention of Dig for Victory but that was missed out this time.
I have just seen the darkest brown fox I have ever seen in my garden. Yesterday was a day of lots of orange-tipped butterflies as well as the loads of meadow browns i have this year so even the wildlife is colour coordinated this year. It is much warmer this morning and dry though the sunshine is still hazy. Perfect gardening weather.

hhmmmmm, I worder if I can work it to go to the MD talk and a wedding on the same day?!
It is a Sunday. Fruitcake. I did not think weddings took place on Sundays but then things do change.
I put this pic of the drake in the lake at the Botanic Garden on a wildlife fb site and a friend appended the Duck poem from "
The Wind in the Willows"
Yes flumpy the weather went downhill after Thursday. It was polling day and the good weather brought out all the voters.
