August 17th The Tease

Spring is just around the corner. Yes have a look, can you see it in the distance? It is getting closer, and closer and closer. Some trees have blossoms on them Every night George hears the comment "Oh My God George. Look!  It is nearly 6 o'clock and it is still daylight"  And then there's the garden. The Gardenia has one bud on it. Tulips are at attention (but no buds as yet. mmm Irene to Tulips, get your act together). The Ice Flower has one teeny orange bud popping through. And finally the true sign of Spring - the Freesias are ready to burst into bloom. We are just about there
