Daffodils doing just dandy

Our first Daffodils are now showing their closed up heads in the garden. I know they'll never be like this in their grandeur, but even if three flower it'll be an improvement on last year.

And spying on my Broad Beans with my binoculars has provided me with the knowledge that they are growing happily outside, even in the arctic wastes of Crystal Palace. The excitement is building!!

The squirrels munched loads of the bulbs I planted though - the sods. I couldn't quite believe my eyes watching them merrily digging them all up minutes after I'd put them into the ground

I saw a report on News 24 on the first da of spring that contained a live OB from Kew. Their daffs havn't come up yet, it's the cold rubbish weather you see. Although saying that, today's been lovey and warm. Spring is here! hooray!

It was really beautiful yesterday - definitely the first day of spring. And now today we April showers! London's great!
