Mr and Mrs

  2. Are you suggesting there’s something wrong with my digital zoon?

  1. Some most expert walking:-)

Not Spanish

Magnificant though the carpets of bluebells are, I have to say, individually, the brighter, paler blue of the Spanish interloper, as seen in our garden, outshines its smaller, darker British cousin by a country mile.

  1. The blue bell show not up to last years – I blame the weather but Nicky, Nicky, Nicky. British bluebells are fine and delicate. They are subtle not brash. They are test cricket not 20Twenty, they are a fine wine, not coca cola. I have never heard anyone say that they were inferior to the Spanish weed

    Very cool. Could you build H a small wooden cottage one day, with little flower boxes under the windows?

  2. I certainly could. If you draw me a rough outline, and an indication of size.
