Beautiful flowers Rob. I am thoroughly enjoying your diary. You really keep busy.
This is the time of year that we get charged up, thinking about spring. Every time the sun comes out, out we go to prune and tidy up...but we have to pull in our enthusiasm because the night temps are still well below freezing :(

Steady entries like this remind me of what I ought to be up to. Instead however I am trawling the internet for this likes of this - have you seen it, Bob?

Four Baked Bean sandwiches! wasn't that a bit messy?
It has been sooooo long since I've visited you Bob. I was thinking about wanting Spring to be here and gardening and so of course thought of you. Sound like you're just as busy as ever.:)
I feel the pace picking up a tiny bit...spring is coming isn't it!
