Hope Springs

It was a fantastic Spring morning today, so we headed down to the lottie with our trusty thermos. On the way we ran into Dave (down at the bottom) who told us that our old friend John Badger isn't feeling too well. Hope he gets better soon. When we arrived, we did a bit of digging and bagged up a lot of stuff to take to the tip. We listened to the birds while we soaked up the warm sunshine and planned our fresh start. We plan to start with cos lettuce, spinach, early potatoes, beetroot and carrots. It was good to be down there again drinking tea on our bench and chatting with Jackie(in front of us) who had arrived to do an hour like us only we stayed for two. It was wonderful to see that the daffs, snowdrops and crocus have all come up to hopefully be followed by Morning Glories, Polyanthus, Bluebells and Iris. Even our rambling rose has got new buds on it already and has started to climb up the hedge again. We came home rejuvenated and with a spring in our step and with high hopes of good crops.
