..done and dusted for another year. This has been fun. Thanks for coming along.

..reprieve, but not for much longer.

..getting ready for a bit of spring cleaning.

..windy wild.

..suddenly (hopefully) thinking about its departure.

..back with a vengeance.

..coats for everyone!

..hot porridge, brown sugar, stewed rhubarb - the breakfast equivalent of a warm woolly blanket.

..mumma-made flannelette jim-jams.

..coat, bonnet, boots, handbag. Puppy optional.

..train whistle blowin' all afternoon and straight into our bedtime lullabies.

..a very large pile of hand-washing. (A side effect of this , I guess.)
