We are fine but a bit fed up with the weather. Today’s delight is ‘freezing drizzle’! Still, spring is officially here, though not yet in fact, as one can see from the couple of feet of snow still in our north-facing back garden.

Found this on the doorstep this morning.
It is, according to google, a great diving beetle. A new one on me but it is definitely a great big beetle.

Morning!
The Conservatory chaps were with us at 07.20 - it was supposed to be 09.00. Thankfully, Mr Bee managed to put a good face on it - I take a bit longer, especially in my present battered state.

Aargh!
Keep telling yourself that the sooner they start, the sooner they’ll finish.
Not that much help, I know.

If they (whether the blokes or the central office) are that careless about keeping appointments, how can you trust them to do a good job?

I’ll not be fighting you for it, Twellsy. As I’m presently a little bit dependent upon Mr Bee, I’ll not be slicing his head off. But - on ye go!
