Long time no see!

It seems ages since I last posted here! well it's exactly five months. Now where did that time go. I have so much catching up to do on everyones blogs! The last five months has brought much happiness, but also much sadness. Daughter is preparing for Uni..exciting stuff. Her and her Dad are now qualified divers. I would love to learn too but have a fear of sharks, which stops me getting into deep water. Maybe one day I will get over my phobia.. Daughter celebrated her 21st Birthday and I now have only two years before my fiftieth.. She also came away from her Countryside Manangement Course with a Distinction, so we are very proud parents indeed... A few weeks back I went to a fantastic Hosta garden in Hampshire and wow what a garden. Hosta's are one of my favorite plants of which I have many myself.. I finally got my chickens, three Light Sussex and I am loving every minute of keeping them, they never fail to entertain... On a sad note I lost my favorite Uncle, which came as a big shock and then I lost my lovely lady that I cared for as part of a team. Although she was 87 nearly it was very upsetting, but also a relief for her family. Well I hope everyone is enjoying this weather.. hoping to get away for a few days to caravan in Glastonbury and also a few days when we take Daughter to Uni in Falmouth in September.. I will leave you with some photo's of recent times...
