Ten things for which I give thanks this week…
1 – In my personal Springwatch – the bulbs in the garden continue to flourish – the Daffodils are out, including some Soleil D’Ors and somewhere in the middle of this picture, a shy, Snakeshead Fritillary is about to open…

2 – on the subject of flowers, the local florist has a nice sign and a well-dressed shop..

3 – but not a patch on the wedding dress shop whose windows are framed by a mass of flowers on the outside and a cornucopia of ornamentation inside, between the wedding dresses…



4 – I have completed 10 out of 26 A to Z entries but I shall have some time this week to get seriously stuck in – I want to be free on holiday to read other peoples posts and not be writing mine lol!
5 – Barbara was finally persuaded that we should buy her a mobility scooter – as she said to her daughter, half the problem was not being able to accept that she was actually 79 years old, and such a device is entirely appropriate! I shall be picking it up tomorrow…
6 – Only 3 full working days before the holiday!
7 – It is my local town ‘s- Keighley Library live poetry group meeting tonight…
8 – I will make homemade Corned -Beef Hash when I get home – a new favourite of both of us…
9 – Planning to do some painting in the Netherlands…
10 – the weather today is very warm!
Wishing you all a great week
