Enough of GRASPING the nettle and the sting in the tail.
The garden goes dormant for a while in winter.
Heads down and huddle together in the warm.
Time for a rethink.
Time for a warm drink.
A tipple, a tot or a hot toddy.
Let the winter winds blow.
Even bring on the snow.
Eventually it will all go.
A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 🤡

Dear John Moo and coco, trust you are all with us this year, looking forward to spring, and the freashness of the blooms of nature, All ready the cultivated daffodils are in the flower shops, and supermarkekets! Great! a New way of looking at life, and smelling the fragrence of affection, as I collect my bunch of daffodils.
There again I trust all the leaders of this modern world who may meet in DAVROS today-wednesday- bring us promises of a settled world within the troubles worldwide of last year.
I Just wish for 2026 Peace to all concerned., and respect for all nationalities.
