a spring fling


I know that officially spring is still a few weeks away, but this week,
in and amongst the cold snaps,
there has been a wee glimpse of sunshine and warmer days ahead.
I think I mean this both literally, and also figuratively, in the terms of my current renovating climate.
So here it is, Saturday morning.
I'm fortifying myself on coffee and toast (yet again.)
And the building team are fortifying themselves on V (yet again.)
The chit chat is all about tonights crucial rugby match between the All Blacks & the Wallabies.
There is a little nervousness in the camp. 
Brunnel will have no fingernails left by the end of the game, and depending on the referee, will most likely have demonstrated some of his finer verbal repartee to his children.
In the meantime, we have our own crucial sporting contests - netball starts again today for both girls.

I know I've been a little neglectful of the blogworld this week. I hope you understand.
I'm looking forward to a wee wander your way over the weekend.

In the meantime, aren't these daffodils, just the most gorgeous sign of all that lies ahead!

Happy weekend.

  5. I feel very treasonous saying this but I don't know how you could have possibly imagined the All Blacks not winning. Poor Wallabies need a bit of spring in their step...send them some daffs will you!

  9. Was a fabulous game, even when watching it from the opposite side of the Tasman! I currently have the song 'Love is in the Air' stuck in my head, but now, I've altered it to.. 'Spring is in the Air'!! Hope you are having a fabulous start to your week.
