I'm back :)

Very pleased to hear from you again Gee. Great news about your health problems not being too serious. Your bluebell woods are very special. Thank you for sharing. I have just posted photos of ducks and was wondering if yours are back in your garden this year.

Nice to have you back Gee and so glad your news was good news ... bluebell woods always have such a calming effect we have them near us I always look forward to May to go strolling there.
Hope you had a good meal with the family, some good weather now will do you the world of good so you can get back into your gardening.

i wondered where you had been Gill I'm pleased things have worked out well for you ,I didn't realise Bluebells were so advanced I'm heading off to our local wood to see if ours are in flower its a sight I would hate to miss :o)

I love bluebells too Gee.....glad things turned out ok for you.

Good to see you back Gee and so glad that you have good news as regards your health, nice pics of the bluebells...

So pleased to see you back again Gee you have been missed , great to know that your health scare is unfounded, wonderful set of pictures;0))

Wonderful news Gee so pleased for you and your family :o)
What a beautiful Bluebell wood to walk in, it would certainly lift your spirits walking in such surroundings with Millie :o)

Glad to hear your ok what better way of easing the mind than nature, wonderful woodland walk Gee and welcome back.

The bluebell woods seem to reflect your relief after a worrying time.
So glad that all is well and that you have come back to us all on here. :-)

You have had some good walking weather recently Gee and the bluebells are really lovely. They give a wonderful haze of blue and the perfume is a delight. Very pleased to hear you had good health news. We have been through this grinding mill time after time since 2009. OH not me, so far, but it is very distracting and gardening does help too.

Glad you have had good news as regards your health,Gee..and all summer to enjoy your garden without any worries..I love Bluebells too,we saw lots yesterday,driving past woods..I hope you enjoyed your meal :o)

Thank you all for your very kind welcome back. It has rained heavily here today for the first time in ages so I am taking the opportunity to stay indoors and do some catching up.

No ducks in my garden this year, Scotsgran, I don't think they like my lawn-less back garden. They may be nesting next door though. Unfortunately we have a very predatory cat living nearby now so hopefully they are all nesting somewhere safe.

What a worrying time you've had Gee. Glad it was good news at last...now you can enjoy spring! Welcome back! X

Thank you, Karen, just trying to catch up with everything now :)

Lovely spring days now for Millie walking Gee. Those pussy cats are a nuisance. I looked up from meal preparation to see 2 almost identical tortoiseshell cats having a thrill a minute bird watching vigil. One on the wall and the nervous one lurking under the bushes. Poor birds will not go near the feeders with these 2 lady cats lurking. Are torties more bird addicted then other shades of cat?

We had a long walk this morning, Dorjac, up in the woods for about 2 hours. Millie has slept since we returned home! Our monster cat is grey, very pretty but a real menace. He killed numerous ducklings last year and lots of the folk in the retirements flats complained to the owner and suggested that they put a bell on it. Not sure if that has helped or not, he is still on the prowl and I have found him in my garden once or twice. Millie does not like cats so I have to make sure I chase him off before she sees him lurking in the bushes.

Nice to see you back Gee and with your good news. I havnt been on here for a long time either..and also have been having health problems... love the bluebell woods... so lovely to walk through..

so glad you're back, Gee! loved the pics, espeically the first one, stunning.
