....well not quite, but I do claim the first grass cut of the year.
My lawn had been looking more and more untidy so with splendidly low
humidity this first day of January, I was able to give it a much needed
trim. Job completed by 1020 GMT.
Anyone beat that?

It's a nice day here too -what a warm pre dawn it was.
If only I'd had some more of this during the hols, I'd have finished
the garden for the winter. I still have a bag of daffs mouldering.
I saw a cherry type tree in flower a few weeks back but can't remember
where. Nutsford I think. I meant to check it out but am in Stafford
next. I saw a magpie carrying a twig to a tree in the nice weather
about then too; so probably a yoof jumpin' the gun a bit.
Anyway here is a blast from the futu
