Starry ⭐ starry night…….

Walked it a few years ago and it fab 👍😊

@dash_beck2 Bottom end of a windmill 🤔

@SamRaincock Did you get some spurs too 😉

I’ve got myself some new boots - which are the same as the current boots I am wearing (although size smaller since they are a roomy size). I like them so I got another pair in spare in case they get discontinued 🤣

@LoveGrowingVeg Looks great 👍 👍👍

Had another 6mm of rain/hail early evening and then the sun came out. Birds singing, village bells ringing so I thought I’d do a video and show you my latest wildflower project. The flowers are now starting to come out and I’m very excited about how they will look in a few weeks time. Enjoy 😊💚🌼

The #Lupins are in bloom and the ‘Cottage Garden’ is looking very fresh after the recent rain 👍😊

@LoveGrowingVeg @FlowerdewBob It’s not great up here either, but we end up just planting those that can manage a cold spring - can’t grow lavender 🫤

actual frost here last night, birdbaths frozen!

@SamRaincock It was bitter in Corbridge earlier 🫤

Another chilly day again......

I’ve taken a weeks annual leave. Caroline’s told me ‘you need a project to keep you out of mischief and out of the LC” - so I’ve been tasked with making a rustic fence for the (soon to be) orchard 🍎 🍒 - just like the arch I made last w/e I’m only at the planning stage 😉

The #Hydrangea is looking good this year 👍😊
