Today is very wintry and I am glad that I have put my herbs in the greenhouse until the warmer weather returns. xSimonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02766240849932971541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-13966925749955720022017-04-26T14:25:47.499+01:002017-04-26T14:25:47.499+01:00Thank you Linda.

When we first came to live here and the pottery was made in the city you could pick them up for a few pence but now they are all made abroad there aren't those 'factory seconds' anymore. Such a shame. We had a smattering of snow, just like icing sugar on a cake, them wind and sleet. Stay warm:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-89396989059209137602017-04-26T14:22:19.871+01:002017-04-26T14:22:19.871+01:00I hope you enjoy the film when you watch it, the c...I hope you enjoy the film when you watch it, the courtyard house and scenes by the River Seine are wonderful and all three main actors so good:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-14054176651515897232017-04-26T14:20:57.835+01:002017-04-26T14:20:57.835+01:00Oh, yes, the pink blossom is so fragile and so pre...Oh, yes, the pink blossom is so fragile and so pretty and I almost hate the wind for spoiling it:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-78479533996607385042017-04-26T14:19:52.528+01:002017-04-26T14:19:52.528+01:00We got a light covering of snow and windy sleety w...We got a light covering of snow and windy sleety weather the next day.

I hope this cold weather doesn't spoil the sweet peas or the peony and clematis buds. Lovey to see foxes in daylight, we know they visit the garden but they are very hard to spot in the dark. Can't wait for the final episode of Line of Duty but I wonder what will replace it? I do enjoy a good series you can get your teeth into:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-65657303958865928102017-04-26T14:14:28.855+01:002017-04-26T14:14:28.855+01:00The cold wind and sleety snow has spoilt some of t...The cold wind and sleety snow has spoilt some of the blossoms and flowers but there were still many blossom trees about as we went on our travels today.

I would visit the Portmeirion Factory Shop if it was nearer to where we live as I could do with a few more side plates with botanical illustrations on them. The new café bar looks like a pleasant place too. You've captured some lovely Spring blossom and flower beds of tulips. We had a hailstorm yesterday so the plants got a bit of a battering.

Have you noticed as soon as the pink blossom comes we have strong winds...grrrrrr. Enjoy your week.

Sadly we got a real battering.

New coffee shop and the shops nearby look very tempting :) By coincidence we saw a fox trotting across the road yesterday at lunchtime - rarely get them in the garden these days. Love the combination of orange tulips and crown imperial - really stunning :) Realised the other day I hadn't sown any sweet pea seeds so need to buy some young plants here too!<br /><br />So enjoying Line of Duty too - I don't know what I will do on a Sunday evening when it has finished - highlight of my tv week! Every series has been just superb - so well written and acted. I will be checking out Jacqueline Winspear books when I have finished the Dr Ruth Galloway and Vera Stanhope books :)<br /><br />Have a good week.Ragged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11621908.post-3695268671689843392017-04-24T18:27:36.027+01:002017-04-24T18:27:36.027+01:00A nice catch-up with your corner of the world.

We're still a bit behind all of that. I notice our neighbour's magnolia tree is ready to burst into bloom though. We've watched My Old Lady a couple of times and quite enjoyed it too. I really like all the three main actors. Have a great week!<br />WendySeptember Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.com
