Today I Heard a Frog Croak

Yesterday I read a comment on a blog from someone who said they were fed up with the Brits complaining about the rain. In our defence, well my own any way, its not so much the rain but the grey skies, the continual dampness and the lack of sunshine! But hey, we all need to have a moan sometimes and then we smile and get on with it :-)

It hasn't rained here today but you can see the droplets of water on the moss bed that should be our lawn :-) And of course we are lucky! We have not been flooded out of our home! But spring is on its way :-)

These little bulbs are our Tete a Tete daffodils under the Magnolia Tree.
And here are our larger old fashioned daffodils whose buds were eaten by slugs last year. This year I am keeping a closer eye on them!
My favourite Japanese Anemones have new growth :-)
And the Lavender that I cut back so harshly has new shoots; although I am worried it may not flower this year.
Just as well I planted new Lavender along the path!
I do believe these are another favourite of mine - Bluebells!
No - its not a puddle - its our pond :-)

And look who is hiding amongst the mass of overgrown pond plants :-)
Whoops :-) its a bogof - buy one get one free :-) or two for the price of one!
Wrap up, stay warm, stay dry! And have a great weekend!
