Sprin cleaning

No baby photos tonight ,promise .But there is one of my youngest boy clearing out his bedroom after four years away ,and accumulating four years of stuff ,who said a square peg doesn't fit in a round hole ! but it's lovely to have him home for a couple of weeks ,and the nicest weeks of spring to boot .





  The daffodils are nearly over and the bluebells are just starting ,so it should be a great display by Labour w/e,let's hope that the weather keeps fine ..Thinking of you all .

WARNING : Baby photos following !

Sorry folks but it was Eulalia Bellbird Berrys first visit to Cambrian so I felt that it called for a photo opportunity ,after all what is Cambrian for if it's not for the next generations !!!






   On a completely different note ...If you are even the slightest bit interested in China ,and you ought to be a LOT,then I can't recommend this book enough ..."When a Billion Chinese Jump" by Jonathon White ,it's quite big ,but very readable ,and although it's China the lessons apply equally to all of us ,check it out, it's only 2yrs old . ...happy spring ...

Middle Spring .

Evening All ...such a glorious day in Cambrian today , the sun rose about 6.45 so I staggered out of bed whilst the ground was still wet and had a big burn-off before breakfast .Bottled a batch of beer and made another in readiness for the summer days ahead .Fanally transplanted lots of little rose campion plants from the back door to the road junction ,here and there ,all in all a productive day ,I don't think that I spoke with anyone today ,but the chooks did lay me three eggs and the duck is sitting quietly on a clutch behind the hawthorn tree .Certainly can't complain about life !!
I think that I must have got the worlds smallest chook egg today ,to go along with the worlds smallest birds nest and some tiny daffodils .




   The snowdrops are all gone and the daffodils are  all out ,yet the bluebells haven't started ,I hope that some of them are out by next w/e as it will be Eulalias first visit to Cambrian ,I'm quite excited !
