Easter And After

[poliphilo]

The Easter holiday was mainly grey and wet and cold. We neglected to do anything Eastery. On Sunday my sister Skyped us and we got to share at a distance in her family get together- which was nice. One of my great nephews demonstrated the uses of a clockwork chick called Chip.

Today has been showery, with sunny intervals- classic April weather. We went into Ashton on errands for Ruth and my in-laws and bought ourselves a couple of flowering hyacinths in Ikea, remaindered at 99p each.

I love hyacinths...such pretty and sweetly scented flowers.
Plant the bulbs in the garden when they're done flowering and the leaves have dried.

I don't think we'll plant them outside, because bunny will eat them- but we're planning to hang onto them for next year.
