Let’s change the subject. It’s St David’s day and the daffodils in the garden and on the field wall have barely shown their faces as yet.
Which is odd.
I got up at 6 pm and walked the dogs. It was dusk and chilly but the sky was cheerful enough given the pink hues in the West.
A fox darted across the field, unseen by the Welsh who sniffed and wee’d and sniffed again and before we knew it, we were heading home, Mary cold without her woollen coat
The day has shot past, as they do nowadays
And by 6.30 I was driving to work in the company of Lisa Tarbuck
I have a couple of little tete-a-tete daffs flowering in my garden, with the promise of more to come. Just waiting for the weather to warm up enough for me to sit outside and enjoy them! Wishing you safe travels and a peaceful shift. xx
ReplyDeleteWe've had a few days of sun and warm temperatures and the tete-a-tetes have burst into bloom. Cheery daffodils blooming, bees buzzing happily on the mahonia flowers, spring peeper frogs singing themselves silly.
ReplyDeleteWould love to see a photo of Mary wearing her new coat.
Wishing you a quiet & peaceful evening at work.
An evening walk is good..a night shift not so good. Take care x
ReplyDeleteThe track from Dyserth to Prestatyn and the Morfas woodlands has lots of daffodils in bloom, strange because years ago I struggled to find daffodils for the children to wear to school on 1sr of March…Tweetart..
ReplyDeleteI'll join you in ignoring the nasty bits!! Here in New Zealand, we've officially entered Autumn, but had very little real Summer. Usually the later half of January and all of February are really warm/hot. This year January was cold and much of February pretty ordinary. Travelling through the middl of the island last week, the hills were green and lush - usually they'd be brown by now. The flowers are late, but doing well now. Hopefully we'll get a couple of weeks of good weather before it starts to feel wintery. Enjoy the Daffs as they start to pop up!
ReplyDeleteHappy St David's Day!
ReplyDeleteHappy St David's day. It is, once again, snowing here.
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I'm glad I missed all the shitty comments from yesterday on your blog. trump is beyond the pale. He is a malignant sociopath who lies, cheats and steals. He is the very worst of humanity.
ReplyDeleteHas Mary's new coat not arrived yet?
ReplyDeleteAm glad you slept before your night shift and that the dogs didn't go after that fox that was nearby.
Wishing all night shift folks a peaceful shift!
Hugs!
No daffs here yet, but the snowdrops are still decorating the garden beautifully. Happy St. David's Day. x

ReplyDeleteOur daffs are out, but the south west tip of Wales is a long way south from you! It's lovely to see colour back in the garden.
ReplyDeleteIs Lisa Tarbuck a cleaner at the hospice? Where did you pick her up? I can easily imagine her living in Rhyl.
ReplyDeleteDaffs just starting to be seen here. I love daffodils, such cheery flowers. I hope Mary gets her woollen coat soon. Us old girls feel the cold!!
ReplyDeleteDaffs are about 4 inches tall here, no flower stalks yet.
ReplyDeleteSnowdrops were early, daffodils showing late this winter here in West Yorkshire. Too much wet as well as cold this autumn and winter, also lots of really nasty high winds this year; makes any little flower keep it's head down, including me. Hope the shift goes well.
ReplyDeleteHappy St David's Day.
ReplyDeleteWe put all Mavis' little jumpers and coats out for her doggy friends Mums and Dads to take for them. They were all gone within hours, so there will be some lovely cosy little doggies going around until this weather perks itself up.
When do the night shifts end for you?When you graduate?
