Slugs and snails.....

"Sugar and spice

and all things nice,

that's what little girls are made of

Slugs and snails

and puppy dog tails

that's what little boys are made of"

I remember that rhyme

from being a little girl

and taunting my brother with it

Hahaha!!  Served him right!!!

Anyway, an update

on proceedings

in the yard.

I got up at 4.30am this morning

for a drink

and went out into the yard.

I love that time of day

when its light

and so quiet and still.

I spotted another

pesky slug, a huge one,

and sent him on his way

through the air and off to visit

another home on the Grove.

Hopefully the Honesty

will now survive.
Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Another positive

is that yesterday I noticed

that the hydrangea cutting

that has sat in a jar of water

on my kitchen table for weeks

has started

to grow roots

And yes, these little things

do excite me!!!!
