SOWING




Suddenly, after that unending winter, spring jumped out at us this week.  The sun has been shining, the birds are singing, the hens are laying well, even our grumpy old rabbit seems in good spirits.  It makes such a difference to - well, everything.


                                   
The picture is from the Imperial War museum - an authentic copy of a greenhouse from the ‘dig for victory’ days.  It has become my dream greenhouse and some day I will have one just like it.  In the meantime I have to put up with my tumbledown aluminium one, but it does the trick and there are lots of tender annuals and early vegetables germinating in there at the moment - oblivious to how inferior their surroundings are.
