....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

Here's hoping that the platitudes being bandied around will now stop
before more curses are incurred as in aulde lang syne.
