And so far that's correct; normally it's quite cold by now, but we've had lovely warm days and the perennials in my flower bed are still green and growing. Usually by now everything's frozen black. Interesting to see this is happening in faraway places, too.Blondi Blathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656970490122824720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-3851259322165157682011-10-02T21:24:17.160+01:002011-10-02T21:24:17.160+01:00Pat - yes feeling much better thanks.

So it was lovely - and great to get some of the old photos and hear of more connections.Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-47222481447102558582011-09-30T20:39:23.710+01:002011-09-30T20:39:23.710+01:00What a wonderful treat to have some visitors from ...What a wonderful treat to have some visitors from the past!Mary Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14986934534719487604noreply@blogger.com
