I’ve had a bit of a bad day, starting with waking up to snow this morning. Fortunately this seemed to be a dusting in the garden and on the roads even if the car was rather well coated. For various reasons it was well gone 7 pm before I left work so I feel a bit cheated on fresh air. Ben is not overly impressed either. I’m hoping for a good sleep tonight and at least some sunshine tomorrow, or a bit of dry during the day tomorrow.

When I have been out and about recently I have been eyeing up other people’s gardens. My bird cherries have some way to go before they have enough blossom to match. After I told my mum about the flowering currant I’ve been jealous of for most of March she suggested I try striking a cutting. Its in an abandoned pub’s carpark so I might see if I can take some this weekend while I’ve the idea still fresh.

Ben is more interested in the treats than the Magic Garden tonight.
