Lovely photos, Hosta, I would rather be there than in 30°, but I hope you have a good holiday.
Slept better last night, it's just a cold. But a couple of years ago I had bronchitis 3 times following colds.
Crisp and clear here -6°.
Lily P, no particular news about grandbabies, both are due in May. But Son 1's will be a girl and Son 2 doesn't want to know. Both DILs are feeling fine now morning sickness has passed. Son 1 already has 2 girls and Son 2 has 2 boys. I hope your families are all well.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Hosta - love your view - photos are gorgeous - hope you both have a lovely holiday.
I've just been out to thaw out the birdbath and top up the feeders - a Snow Bunting crocus is up and blooming but no sign of the snowdrops ............ yet
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Morning all - bright and crunchy underfoot here too. Cracking photos Hosta
Yesterday was similar - went for a lovely walk in the Punchbowl - surprisingly few people about. I love this time between Christmas and New Year - lots of days to do just as you please
Mr C got his chainsaw out late yesterday and felled some trees that had outstayed their welcome ....self seeders that were in totally the wrong place. Today we have to clear up the mess. Small trees make an unbelievable mess when they are strewn across the ground rather than standing upright. Leaves us room for a new flower bed though - will be mostly shrubs, but planning a cornus kousa as the centrepiece

LP, we were there 2 years ago, but it was only 2 weeks after my knee " went" so I was on crutches. It'll be nice to be able to walk about this time.
I am sure it will. Enjoy!

Morning all!
Crisp and clear here too, thick frost, but outside sensor is on the blink so I'll just have to stick my nose out of doors to gauge the temperature...
I'm with you, Busy. I'd much rather be next to Hosta's beautiful lake than anywhere with a temp of 30+. Gorgeous photos!
Will be going to the shops the long way round (up and over and round!) this morning.
Tranquil photos Hosta. Beautiful

Lovely news about impending grandchildren
Ooh, cornus kousa!
It was pretty in the park this morning.
A bit cold for tennis though...
This is what's left of the row of Ash we took out. Hopefully the hedge will appreciate it.
Stunning pics Hosta.
Very thick frost here this morning, but now the sun is shining.
Park pics lovely Liri.
H*******k being done before friends pop round........then more nibbles to be eaten
Have a lovely day everyone.
