End of March antics

Here we have the Tulips finally beginning to bud up, might even see some colour soon! The weather has been so nice lately that I have removed the cloche from the strawberry plants that have been overwintering. I guess the huge holes in the cloche helped them harden off and so far so good. I [...]

Curry Night a la my house

I really am so productive these days! I am romping through the to-do lists although a stream of new enquiries is keeping them topped up.
