We have flowers in abundance this year, the pig looks good Lisa.

And more, the last couple of weeks of warm weather have made such a difference

We are in Middlewich Cheshire this weekend, enjoying the warm weather, yesterday, Saturday started with a heavy, cold shower of rain, then the sun came out and we basked in it all afternoon, we will be moving on Monday morning heading for the sevices at Anderton, then on to Preston Brook and the Bridgewater canal.

I had to buy an anchor, chain and warp this week due to the fact that we will be going on to a couple of rivers this summer, {what's the correct size of anchor for my 57 ft boat? think of a number, double it and multiply by the first number!!} no one seems to know, not even the chandlers are sure ''er, this one should be plenty big enough for you''. So I hope the one they sold me is ok.

The flowers have been doing so well, we decided to plant some Coz lettuce seeds this week, Elsie planted potatoes a fortnight ago and they are through already,

Thats all for this week folks.
