spring returned again today and the western heights was bathed in hazy sunshine.
ropewalk field currently plays host to 11 dexter cattle that have gone through an awful winter and are now enjoying the sunshine.

Our pear tree has come into brilliant blossom this week, attracting huge numbers of bees. The bees seem very big this year, I hope they are not the killer bees of which we have read alarmist global warming hysterical reports.

Yes they are looking good, love my garden but bring small plants in at night still to cold for them.

Nice to have positive photos of Folkestone Road for a change; despite countless emails, photos and meetings, the "battle-zone" remains the same.

Folkestone Road is only tatty where those multitude of flats were allowed, near the Elms Vale turning it reverts to the cared for look.
