Last Saturday In January

Already January is nearly over, and this last week we have had some winter weather with the temperatures dropping and some frost and ice about. Today we had blue skies and winter sunshine. This morning we walked at Busketts after delivering a Birthday Present to Jean (and tonight we are celebrating at our favourite Italian restaurant) We met up with a few doggy friends , including little Magic the Labrador puppy. This afternoon we walked at Ocknell Lots of big puddles and plenty of water in the pond.
At the end of January the nights are already getting lighter and soon Spring promises to be here.
The snowdrops in the garden are in full bloom now.

The first flowers of the year are peeping up in the garden, the delicate little snowdrops.
