Spring Flowers

Most years I see the first flowers of spring in a graveyard in Deepest Hackney. Beat that. This year, though, I spied crocuses on a roadside verge in Wells before spotting any elsewhere. That was yesterday morning. Yesterday evening, two hours before midnight, I happened to be walking through that Hackney graveyard, looking for Home Secretaries to frighten. I didn't see any, or any spring flowers. But I've just found some in another location on my home patch. Crocuses, that is.

Is It That Time Of Year Already?

Card This is a Christmas card - a really lovely one, in my opinion. It was designed by my Hackney neighbour Becky George, who makes and sells them too. Her range also includes holly, bells, stars, Santas...yer basic seasonal favorites. If you want to buy some, you can contact Becky here. If you want me to send you one, email me an address and I'll stick one in the post (as long as I like the sound of you). And now I'm off to buy a job lot of stamps.
