Our weather system has thrown many surprises at us this last year, one has to wonder what is in store for us across the seasons in 2024.
Its a damp start, but mild. Though a cold snap is threatening.
In our garden there are some signs of spring. Bulbs are sprouting, some shrubs have buds forming…. but it is the Twisted Hazel that has a profusion of Catkins gracing its dark stems.

No matter if that can be interpreted as a good sign or a bad sign, right now it is a sign that spring is on the way – though the timetable has yet to be established 🙂
The first real full working week of 2024 is ahead of us….
So we best get prepared…. and as always remember to….
Please Remember ….
Stay Safe …. Be Kind…. Look After Each Other
