    Hi, Tilly, things seem to be ticking along nicely.


    I'm also looking forward to the clocks changing. Before I went on holiday it was mostly grey and dull..... and it seems exactly the same since I've been back, too.


    Can't wait to kick start spring!

  • Hi GoldieGirl, let's hope we have a long hot summer, although I'd settle for just mild or warm anything but grey and wet :rotfl:

    Greent, have you got your seeds ready? Salad leaves in a few weeks from the garden :T

    :D:D I've brought my tin of seeds indoors, Tilly and have sorted through them. I shall sow some mixed salad leaves and some plain rocket over the weekend, along with cress (egg and cress sandwiches - yum!) and maybe some carrots - even if the carrots don't come to much the guinea pigs will eat them (and the tops)


    Typical Bank Hol weather expected, though....
