April at last

March went out like a lion, and it's still pretty cold, but the roses and viburnum are coming in to leaf at last. Plus, it's daffodil time! Plus, there are tulips sprouting in the borders from last year's display and the tulip bed by the shed is looking promising and the tulips Sue planted in a pot for us are elegantly budded up and we can't wait to see what they are.

Lots of plusses, then, plus a very very long list we made today of a few hundred things that need doing. Yesterday Edgar and Anastasija and I started filling in the area where the corrugated hut used to stand. After an hour, it was clear that I will have to find a lot of soil or compost from somewhere else to create a level garden patch in that north-sloping corner. Plus, there is the stump of that big beech tree to remove somehow.
