Thursday 25th April

 Oh me oh my, it is SO COLD outside.

The only gardening I did was to start a jar of mung bean sprouts - indoors. 

Although my gardener came, and dead-headed and weeded and generally tidied up everywhere. She's squeezed a few more plants into the cold frame and shut the lid. The keen gardener next door has wrapped up all the tender new shoots on his hydrangeas in a fleecy tent.

I did go out for a short toddle up and down outside in the afternoon, peering at the neighbour's gardens. Our neighbours on the other side have masses of azaleas in bloom, in every shade of pink. It makes for a very vibrant display  and every Bush was covered in busy busy bees.

Those little twins were out again later, with a slightly older sister. The twins are still so busy just managing to stagger along without falling over that they have no control of which direction they go in; it just depends on where their short little legs take them. Father was running in every direction at once, until mother appeared to help out!
