Christmas 2024

 

When you look out of the window during winter and see bare branches and empty flower beds it is easy to think of the season as an ending. But underground, the cold is softening the shells of seeds ready for germination, the eggs of insects are waiting to hatch and trees have sugar stored in their roots poised for an explosion of leaf growth once the warmer weather arrives. The idea that Winter signals an ending is not true, it is simply paving the way for new beginnings. Let's all celebrate this festive season, and embrace with positivity 2025 when it arrives.

  2. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Positive thoughts. From now on it's lighter by 2 and then 3 minutes a day until spring. And it's been a very mild December so far for all the pensioners indoors, so another unexpected bonus.

    1. Happy Christmas Bob - sorry I have been getting more and more absent from here, time is catching up with me. I have one brave little snowdrop already in flower in the garden.
