we have had some - but it didn't last long and it is very bright and blue again now.
We went for a little trip out to TG yesterday, and bought some lovely big primroses in a pot which were surprisingly cheap. Luckily B put them in the shed rather than straight out to get snow on them, so they will be nice to look at when the snow has passed.
I've had a visit today from Pam who works in the PE dept at college, she bought me some alternative T bags, a jar of free trade honey and a pile of books, so she's got her eye in on a convalescent's needs!
It was good to mull over a few things; Pam and I started at college together (along with Andy K and Cathy to name two other famous recruits of that year!) 16 years to reflect on! haha ...
Now they are nine.
Here is a picture of my lovely nephews tucking into their birthday Chinese Takeaway (yesterday)...
It is wierd cos when they were born I hadn't planned to zip down there to see them, but then I just HAD to go and here is a pic of them within hours of their arrival to this world:
look - how tiny they were back then

.. now the boot is on the other foot, and Julie is wondering whether I will need her here when we go back to the surgeon tonight. I'm hoping not, cos I'm hoping there will be no "shock" news ..
but it is a comfort to know that if we need her Julie would be on the train and with us in a blink

Is that Pam Hughes that came to see you? She's one of the best teachers I've ever had!
The snow was lovely. I hope we get a huge drift this week but it looks like it might just miss us. I bet we just get filthy sleet.
See you tomorrow. xx
