Well, the growing season is definitely upon us.  Almost overnight the grass seems to have grown and there are bright yellow dandelions everywhere.  The seedlings in the conservatory are also coming along well.  Aunty Biscuit has also spotted stitchwort,cowslips and forgetmenots whilst out and about on her travels.  I'm wondering whether any of these things will inspire a project but I guess I will have to wait and see. The striped thing seems to have been cast off the needles.  Mum meanwhile is progressing with the gate painting and making the most of the pleasant weather, especially as there is a cold snap forecast. I take a dim view of this as I have just about finished moulting.
