    Blueberry blossom, cut grass and a newly opened bag of potting compost.
    Into each life some rain must fall........but this is getting ridiculous.

      Life isnt about surviving the storm.....But learning to dance in the rain.

        Oh gosh. I'm going to have to confess.

        My favourite garden smell is the one when you use a hose with a brass tap - the water on brass smell - I remember it from my childhood. Just makes me feel all summery.

          Tomato plants in the greenhouse.
          The river Trent is lovely, I know because I have walked on it for 18 years.

                    Lemon Thyme closely followed by jasmine then "yesterday, today and tomorrow" bush
                    Never test the depth of the water with both feet

                    The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

                    Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

                        Freshly cut grass, BBQ, jasmine, basil, toms, fresh compost, that lovey 'humid' smell when you open the greenhouse door and the smell when you bite into a big juicy strawb.

                          Philadelphus and the garden after rain, but definitely not cut grass, that makes me sneeze!

                              Lilac, lavender and stock. (Can't stand the smell of tomato plants, but boy do I love their fruit!)
                              A good beginning is half the work.
                              Praise the young and they will make progress.
