Blossom

Awoke today to warmth-no wind some rain but warm, noticed that the plum tree had lots of blossom on it, hopefully it will stay to fruition, ie. no heavy ground frost and a controlled 'June Drop'. Last year was our best year ever for plums, the tree was heaving, and yes we left to go on vacation to Denmark and never tasted one plum. Hopefully this year we will get a good crop.
Up early as I had to attend to some business as I am setting off for Edinburgh tomorrow on my way to The Red Rose county. My mum is in hospital and I am going down to attempt to assess the situation, I spoke to her this afternoon and she certainly sounded much better, Anne visited her and she also said mum was better.
Down to the beach with the wee fellow had a great walk lots of spinning stones and a rather wet Border Terrier!
Home had a light lunch, made a soda bread then turned over one of the beds in the greenhouse.
Started to get my things ready for the journey.
Graham made a lovely dinner vegetable fried rice and curry sauce.
Going to have a cup of tea then bed. Goodnight.
