Aargh! It's half term! I know Bradgate Park was given to the People of Leicestershire, but I much prefer it when they're not hereComment

The place is full of skoolkids again.
I'm safely locked away in my office well away from them.
Nasty infectious things that they are.Comment

So, Bradgate was full - well, not full, because it's really big, but there were half-terming families everywhere, rather than the dozen or so people I might normally expect to encounter, at widely-spaced intervals, on a February weekday
So I cut my walk a bit shorter than planned, and headed off to do the shopping. The short cut via the bypass and the M1 then turned into a very slow cut, because there was a broken-down lorry blocking the motorway junction
Still, finally got it all sorted out, and home again. I'm rewarding myself for my exertions with a jam doughnutComment

I had no choice but to roast a large chicken, as there were only 2 organic ones in Sainsburys left.
Still, no real worries as it is cooking absolutely lovelyThe Chunt of Chunts.Comment

ZeitMater's assortment of house plants in the front room are looking much more healthy since the advent of the Baby Bio in the water once a fortnight, in particular the cyclamen which is loving life again and covered in dozens of blossoms.Last edited by zeitghost; 17 February 2017, 18:31.Comment

Spring flowers in my garden are odd. Nothing comes up then they all come up very quickly and die. So at the beginning of the week snow drops appeared. Then the crosuses and soon some of the daffodils."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
