The view from the "office" in the morning - I'd taken to working in the back bedroom to get out from Chie and Erika's feet while Erika was being home schooled.

Erika studiously doing her home schooling work.

After lunch I thought I would survey the garden. Tulips flowering.

Apple blossom coming soon.

One of the vines on the brink of budburst.

Some of the other bulbs we planted finally coming through - but I've forgotten what they are! Heads look a bit like asparagus.

I mournfully spotted I still had some mud on my trousers from my last walk along the Ridgeway... sigh.

I thought I'd try a bottle from the other case of Breaky Bottom I'd ordered today - this time the Cuvee Reynolds Stone.

Had a sort of lemon cheesecake character.

Nice sky this evening.
