I've got a spasmy back so I'm dedicating the day to moping around. If anyone cares to post pictures of flowers from your gardens to remind me of spring then I'd be very grateful.

Hope you are feeling better after moping around.

Some Spring flowers in the garden. Taken in the rain. This morning they were white for about a half hour.

Thanks, that's exactly the stuff! The promise of spring even when the weather's not cooperating.

Meanwhile, I appear to have tuckered my plums...

My back is responding nicely and everything looks rosey.

That may be the drugs talking.

What a wally.

Maybe it's a very expensive wheel?

Well you seem the best qualified that I know to ask going by the avatar Wol. Do they congregate much?

Crikey that would be tough! Have you though about knitting some shorts for Fabbers?
