As you can see daffs are in the shops again. Bought these for Ann about a fortnight ago. They were in bud then. Took three or four days to come out, and they'll collape and die any day now, but for around ten days they've looked lovely and the scent has been superb. Got our friend Liz Alport staying over (Long Melford tomorrow), and she's taking us out for a meal shortly, to our local Indian restaurant. It's housed in some lovely old (15th century) weavers' cottages, and is called, very aptly Weavers' Spice. Will let you know if it's good or not. We have used it once before soon after it opened, when it did an 'eat all you want' Sunday Lunch. It was not very good then. I suspect it was using up all the leftovers from the previous week. But various friends have told us since then how good it is, so we thought we would give it another whirl, and have booked a table at Liz's request.

Beautiful daffs - I was only talking to a business contact yesterday and he had just had good news aboiut his partner following a medical scare - he said that he could now look forward to the spring and daffodils - we pulled his leg a bit but now I can see what he means, they really do lift the spirit a bit, don,t they ? !!
Love to you both, hope LM went well

Hi Sal. LM went as well as it usually does, thank you. It's the only fair I've ever used the word on, but that fair is Consistent.
As you say daffs do lift the spirit. As the poet fellow said ...... "and my heart thrills, and dances with the daffodills."
You worry me, Mike...
don't you go alooking at daffies if they make your heart thrill...
'tain't good for you now you admit to being past '26-again'!
P.s. I should have done a follow up report to say that the Indian restaurant was really quite good. It's been a while since we've been to one, so we're probably not the best judges; but Liz, who frequents them a good deal, said it was one of the better ones, and we cerainly enjoyed our meal.
