Some garden flowers to brighten your day. #gardening

You know you are of a certain age if, whenever you see Tulips, your brain automatically sings "from hamster Dan" inside your skull... you're welcome! 👂🪱🤣

Arty catkins! #spring

Dear paint companies... this is what "magnolia" looks like... not the horrid beige you like to sell. You're welcome! 😉

Spring is sprung! 🌸 #gardening

This is perfect!

This says it all.

Tiny tableaux of spring. #gardening

The pretty little yellow plant must be a member of the pea family with flowers like this, but so dainty! The jasmine berries are so shiny you can literally see me reflected in them! We have our first blossom of the year, opened this afternoon, and the magnolia won't be too far behind. #gardening

We made a Lego Maximilien 😻

Our Christmas tradition of watching the best version of A Christmas Carol ever continues!! This time with added "Christmas Coffee" from Fortnum's, which is like their Viennese coffee (which my uncle and I adored), but with a hint of chocolate.

Who could resist cuddling this kitty?! #catsofbluesky

Local cat cafe... such a perfect Garfield moment! 😻

An Albert-centric weekend...

Guess where I was yesterday?

The heliotropes, which have been so magnificent all year, have been utterly devastated by the frost and "snow". However, it gives me chance to try out my tiny bud vases for the last remaining flower heads, and as I sit here typing all I can smell is Parma Violet! #gardening

My first post, so please be kind. This is Schrödinger. She has been outside and got very cold paws. Now she's sucking the heat out of me like a feline warmth vampire. #catsofbluesky
