    Our pear tree is an absolute mass of blossom now.

    Ours are in a cold spot. :) they get the sun, but not all winter, not they get it all day, apart from the one on the end, but they also get air a couple of degrees colder than one would imagine because of the airsource heat pump location! :D

    There is a funny tree over the road that it NOT a pear nor a medlar but looks like something related to one or the other.....and that's been in blossom a while and looks lovely.

    I've never had such a thing. Or gardening leave either. The best I've had was maternity pay for a maternity leave that began the day after my contract finished anyway. But that's a statutory entitlement given that I was working for that school on the "qualifying date" in my pregnancy.

    Best I have had is 3 weeks garden leave.

    Happy (belated) birthday, Mas! :dance:

    Any Nice Peeps been to Vegas and can advise on things to see/do outside the city? Within driving distance - for a day trip. Been looking at Hoover Dam/Lake Mead, Red Rock Canyon. Nice? Other ideas?

    Hoover Dam/Lake Mead... Have been to plus Lake Powell from Vegas, nice trip, going onto the dam was amazing. Also to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Hard to get your head round the vastness.

    A bit further away but worth considering are Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park in Utah. Realistically, Utah is a long way away from everywhere, so Vegas is as easy a route in as any.
