You can tell it's spring when ....





... Mike spend his nights on top of mountains in a plastic bag, Lucy fills the air with soapy bubbles and Steph starts spring-cleaning. In earnest: we don't do this every weekend, but we've just had two wonderful days filled with sunshine and warmth and it's done us a world of good. Even Thingummy and Wotsit are being shooed outside to get some real UV rays whilst they swim around in their tin bath in the garden (the pond isn't full, nor are the nights mild enough for them yet).

The peonies have obviously forgiven Mike for moving them to a new spot when he built our pond, as it looks like we may have a very good show of flowers this year. Apart from that the garden is a sea of blue, pink, green, yellow and white since all the plants have woken up. Mummy Blackbird visits the lawn daily for worms and we are definitely full of the joys of spring.
