One welcome back and one sad farewell…..

This is our second spring here at The White House in Dulcote and this week we have welcomed back our stunning red poppies.

Just take a look at them in all their glory…..

But this also brings me to a very sad farewell, to my lovely joules wellie boots bought as a gift by friends and colleagues when I left London.  So well loved, and worn almost every day since our move to Somerset,  they have now been relegated to the dustbin in the sky.  After a much too enthusiastic try to lift a stone that had fallen into the small drainage stream at the entrance to The White House, a huge rip tore into the side.  Farewell good friend……. or is that friends?????
