    Had a good potter this week as well.  Borders have had a tidy, and nice to see hardy geraniums and peony shoots romping away.  Hardy annual seeds have been sown in the (cold) greenhouse and the strawberry trough tidied and mulched.

    Final job was to pot on my tender chilli and climbing snapdragon seedlings, which are now on the study windowsill - which has a note on the door saying ' cat is NOT allowed in this room'.  Cat owners will know why.....

    Huge bumblebee (queen?) buzzing round the window over the front door. Managed to scoop it outside when I opened it.
