Thursday 8th March


This morning

Thick Russian accents on Today and thick snowflakes fall once more this morning.  Only yesterday I was working in the garden in warm spring sun and then the snow rolls in once more.  As for the Russians and whether they did or did not poison those poor people I leave to when further evidence comes to light.  Paul said is it coincidental that Salisbury is an army town and that Porton Down is very near.  Whatever the nerve gas is it is a foul way of killing people.

when it snows one sleeps!

But to return to things much nearer home, took my car in for an annual service yesterday so it is in tip-top condition, hardly been used these last 6 months but it still starts first time.  Pottered around the garden cutting down the ivy which has been creeping across the long bed, cut all the dry stuff down, made note of where the tulips and bearded irises are coming up.  Remember summer is a'coming!

  1. Across the Atlantic, we have snow on our spring buds and more storms predicted. It seems like winter just does not want to go away.

    1. It seems that America has had a very bad time with the weather. I am always amazed how spring flowers keep going under the snow.

  2. Supposed to be quite warm and Springlike by the week end - so we shall feel like gardening then I hope. The colour of those nasturtiums is absolutely stunning and makes me think of a warm summer's day.

  3. We are all sick of the extreme weather. Winter is lovely, but wind and super cold, not so much. I have daffodils in bloom and must take time to get outside and see them!!

  4. The daffs in the churchyard are racing away now that it has warmed up, and I can even think about sowing seeds. firstly, parsley, chives and salad leaves, next the flowers, always hit and miss.
