The last couple of days has been lovely with warm spring sunshine and it was so good to have the lounge window wide open to let fresh air in - today though........... what a difference. It's gone back to being cold again, an overall grey sky and no way was I going to have the window open for long.

So instead of going out, cos it was too damn cold, I yet again leant out of the lounge window and tried my hand at zooming in on some flowers.........




These tulips are about 20ft away from me, so I'm really happy to have managed to get these pics. It would have been easier if I'd had a manual when I bought my camera I admit, but it is quite good fun finding out certain aspects by accident.!!!!

The campanula is opening up beautifully and soon it will be in full flower. These are wild, well they seem to be popping up all over the place and I've never sown them at all. They are in different colours too - white, pink, pale purple and of course this dark blue/purple..........




This flower is about 10ft away from me, but I still managed to get it in reasonable close up.

Okay folks, not a lot to talk about really - Mandi is coming up tomorrow for a few days, so I may not be on here as much, she's staying for Easter, don't know if I'm to be blessed with the company of my son and daughter in law, their lives seem to be rather hectic, with the build-up of them expecting to soon have children. They are going for another ''party'' to meet prospective adoptee children and it's very exciting for them. They are also having to go to many meetings with the Social Workers who are handling this adoption process.

I hope you all have a lovely Easter time and that the weather gods are kind to us all. I don't want to have to have the fire lit this late in April please............
