Chocolate with a difference.


 Whittaker's bring out a limited edition chocolate a couple of times a year and this was the latest offering. Of course we have to try them all. Did we like it? It was okay 🙃

A new latch


A new chain and hook on the gate to the Silverstream flood bank walk. Truth be told, it's a couple of new gates.

Winter cheer


 These jonquils have been flowering for most of the winter. A lovely splash of colour on a bleak, grey day.

Spring's coming


 I looked after this bush for years, probably about 30, as somehow it ended up split right down the middle. Probably the kids or the dog or a combination of both. This year it has thrived and is growing like Topsy. I always thought it was a daphne bush but it's not and I don't know the name of it. I'm pleased it's thriving but disappointed it's not what I was hoping, daphne has such a lovely scent. But I'll keep it when the bushes round about are cut down soon by son in law. I've nurtured it too long for it to go now. 😊

Painted stone


 I 'hid' my painted stone on the drinking fountain at the playground. Can you see it?

A snow day


 Theo's snowman. I'm cheating today and putting up this pic Theos mum sent us. Too cold to go out if we don't have to, even to get a photo. Schools are out for a snow day.

Where's mine?


 This boy was watching through the window while Sooty had his meal.
