Date Posted: 5/04/07 11:08 Hi Wildflower, Well, lots of blossom out on trees and spring flowers. Also seen loads of butterflies - more than usual it seems, bug furry bumblebees .... the birds are busy nesting. Oh yes and lots of lambs, Sam, love them too :) Wonderful to be outside in the warm sunshine at this time of year. I can imagine after the darkness of your winters, wildflower, it must be extra special. And you can look forward to those long, long summer days. I can imagine that Sweden is a wonderful place to be in Spring and summer. It is the one place we really want to visit one day. Blessings Rowan x [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 10/04/07 20:30 Ha! I see you have the same approach to driving as I do Sam. The other day I was so busy looking at some woolly lambs boinging in the field at the side of the road I almost drove through the fence and joined them! I was gardening on Easter day and I sat for ages and watched the birds in their busyness flitting here and there gathering food and nesting material. Lovely. I hope we have some little chicks nearby soon. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 14/04/07 15:02 the tulips are looking beautiful in our garden and our front ditch in the garden is filled with primroses and forget-me-nots (i think!) we have been out tidying up the garden in the evenings this week, have seen thousands of woodlice, bumble bees honey bees a wasp of two and quite a few lady birds, the best thing was last weekend the little boys came round (they are 2 and 3 ) and i showed them how to pick daffodils for their mum they picked a nice bunch each for her and the youngest one found a lady bird. picked it up ever so carefully and let it walk all oner his hand, i was suprised that he could be so gentle.... the other springy thingy is frogs and toads, if you live somewhere near water please be careful of them on the roads in damp evenings, when driving... sorry to harp on but they are lovely !! love sam xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (ribbit) [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 17/04/07 1:41 More snow? wow - we've had such sunny weather here... I'll send a little sunbeam thought your way tomorrow :) Is it usually snowing this time of the year for you Pilgrim? [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 17/04/07 14:36 No it doesn't usually snow this time of year. At least not this much. It's usually what I call yoyo weather. You might get a cold night here and there that puts a few flakes down But not like this. Some airports on the east coast had to shut down due to the snow. Today your sunbeam is comming through. Thank you. :-) It's not expected to get particularly warm but at least theres no snow for now.:-) They say this has been the coldest April since the late 1800's. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 20/04/07 0:59 YAY!! :) Glad you had a sun-filled day Pilgrim. We have had some really lovely sunny days here and the gardens are doing well - and so many butterflies and bees... (and soon dragons... yippee!!) Well... despite it being so beautiful outside I have been mostly inside today! But the shop is looking very pretty with freshly painted walls and now I can enjoy decorating it and getting it ready to bloom... so in a way there's signs of spring in the shop too :) [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
