Saturday 18th February 2023

It was such a lovely day. Frosty morning, turning into warm sunshine - almost spring-like.

I wandered around the croft and garden, inspecting the flowering bulbs and the trees, watered the polycrubs, and picked up some litter. Making plans…

Later on we had a wee fire outside, and sat around, eating blood oranges, throwing the peel into the fire. We stayed out until 6 o’clock as it was still light.

Then we came in and lit the inside fire and had a late tea. I’ve sat up far too late knitting on the lace border of a shawl.

Its been a good day.
