First whiff of spring, still day light when I get off the train, little flowers poking out of the ground, birds zipping around in pairs, then the icy winds from the east tears in and through my clothes...nice though. Knee is standing up to the ever increasing batterings I am giving it, sprints today. 13 weeks since op and hope worst is over.
Dining and breakfast room freshly varnished and bathroom freshly painted by moi. Look pretty good even if do say so myself. Dad would be proud.
Bought a New Zealand flax today. It can grow to 15ft !! Going to put it slap bang in the middle of the front lawn. Should be superb. Very tropical and antipodean.
