In My Garden 2023

  • Nice selection from today and of course not forgetting Cyril. We had a nice sunny but bitterly cold day, snow and ice all gone but brrrrr, still cold. I was planting up some crocus, iris and tete-a-tete bulbs. We are having a bit of fun at our garden club meeting in March, where we have to take a pot of each and see who has the best ones. Folks have been emailing and sending photos of theirs and how well they are doing and mine were still in bags!! Mind you if my memory serves me right, I have planted bulbs at New Year before and they were flowering for March, so fingers crossed, will keep you updated and maybe even some photos.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    I'll not comment on any possible ulterior motives, though the spec of the Sony is pretty damned good, as is the Nikon
