Timely Reminder

Workmen were tending the flower beds on one of the traffic islands this morning even though I thought it was far too cold and wet to get on our own garden.


I'm not sure exactly what they were doing, whether they were replanting, weeding or just generally tidying up but no doubt we will all benefit from their labours when the spring flowers burst into bloom. Spring is not that far away but we still have the whole of February to get through yet and winter is by no means over. The sight of the workmen though is a timely reminder to be planning for our own garden and taking the opportunity to do some preparatory work as soon as we are able.
