A new beginning....

I was recently told that when one door closes, another opens - well I suppose that sums up the last month.  I was made redundant from my garden centre job two weeks ago, and tomorrow I start a new job at another garden centre.  I am so lucky to find another job so quickly, especially as its just round the corner and fits in with my morning job at the newsagents.

One of the great things about living in the countryside is the different birds which you see in the garden and locally.  This black and white pied blackbird draws quite a few glances!

There was plenty of activity in the field opposite when they finally took the sugar beet up.  Usually they would have taken it up months ago but I suppose the bad start to the winter delayed everything.

And finally... why does the cat always insist on sitting on the pile of neat freshly ironed clothes???
