Spring in the air

Ooops Ive been very lax at keeping this up to date. And interestingly I note that petrol was 33p cheaper when I wrote the last entry!.

Since Christmas I have been ill with angry gall bladder which will be removed in May. Life is at the present very restricted -a fat free diet, no alcohol. By the end of the day and some days sooner, I am in a fair amount of pain so its basically rest, work and home to rest again. Social life and trips out are just not feasible. On the good side, Ive lost over a stone in weight, so each cloud does have a silver lining!!

Spring is finally on its way after a good dose of winter. Snowdrops and aconites in the garden are flowering their socks off. The daffs and tulips are growing now by the day and the buds swelling on the hedges and best of all the days are longer once more.

I will try not to leave it so long before the next posting......
