I am here Ian

- just being uncharacteristically quiet

. We have been changing computers - nearly done now and this one is much faster.
I have ventured into the garden again for the first time since all that ice and snow so am hoping to get your comfrey sent off asap. I feel awful that I have been promising you and others some for ages, but the ground stayed frozen even after the air temp was quite mild - it was like permafrost. My eldest grandson cleared away all the dead foliage for me so now I can dig up some plants and get them divided and sent.
Happy Hippy is right that I have been having fun in my new car

I'm hoping it will help blow away the winter cobwebs so I can get stuck into the spring work.
I'll let you know when the parcel finally gets in the post
How are the dogs doing?
