New Year.

A Happy New Year to you and Gerry too,Linda.I am so glad you are recovering well,and it will be a good year for you,I'm sure..
We have a frost here this morning too.only white rooftops,so not too bad,but like you,we are forecast more rain later...as if we haven't had enough here ! Things are progressing slowly but surely .and another Bridge has developed cracks,so that will be three damaged or destroyed so far.This last one at Brighouse is still being assessed for safety..So many fantastic people coming from far and wide with offers of help..take care,and enjoy your walk.xx

Happy new year to you and yours, Linda, so pleased to hear how well your new knees are doing. That must be a greatv relief. Frosty here too but very light. Torrential rain yesterday but nothing like other areas have suffered. They have neve been far from our thoughts.

Happy new year to you and yours Linda. Pleased to hear how well you're getting on with your new knees - long may it continue.

Cold and frosty here as well this morning. Actually feels like winter today.

Hi Bloomer, Thanks for your kind thoughts. I feel sorry for the people who have had flooding problems. It must be awful for them. Also the old bridges cracking with the strain of the extra flow of water behind them. The farmers must be finding it hard to cope too with wondering what to do with their animals.
Hi HB. Thanks.... It was a bit nippy in the park but we were well wrapped up. There was still some ice about. Plenty of wildfowl on the river. Waiting to be fed by passers by I expect. It's strange weather this year, and the forecasters say it's going to get warmer again.
Hello Gee, thanks for your kind thoughts too. Having your home flooded once must be awful, but to keep on happening must be devastating. The rain did come down heavily yesterday but not for too long.
Thanks Sam, yes nature must have had a shock last night. I wonder how the hedgehogs are doing with their hibernation having it so variable. Some of the roses and trees are beginning to sprout again.

All the best in the coming year Linda.

Happy new year wishes to you both ...

Thanks Shirley and Klahanie, hope you both have a good New Year too, and a good gardening one!

Happy new knees oops sorry year :o)
keep up the effort and enjoy the garden this year

Glad you are getting around better Linda.......Happy New Year.

Thanks Seaburngirl I really kneeded that...LOL. I think I've had all the knee jokes thrown at me and it makes me smile. Hopefully the garden will be getting some cut backs....like everything else. Hope the New Year is kinder with the weather.
Thanks Linda, Happy New year to you too.

I'm pleased to hear you are in less pain and getting about more Linda ,its just as well its winter fingers crossed you will be skipping by the time spring arrives , Happy New Year to you & Gerry x

Thanks Amy. hope the new year has lots of good things for you and your family.

A Happy New Year to you both and it sounds as if you are really enjoying being able to get out and about enjoying short walks in such lovely places.

Thanks Wildrose and a Happy New Year to you too. It's good to hear all the birdsong. We had a pair of Blue tits looking at our box yesterday....far too early.
