A week ago in East Yorkshire but it is a Rijnveld's Early Sensation

Grace-over-the- road has daffs in full flower. I don't expect mine for
3 weeks.


Mine are just starting to poke their heads out of the soil.


One day I'd like to be like Grace. She jumps out of aeroplanes for
charity, last time she did it she was 90. She's probably 93 now. She
still drives her car locally to the shops etc. Probably best she doesn't
go much further than our village with her car though ;-)
I wouldn't like to be her passenger tbh, but she always gets safely there
and back.
She still gardens a lot (although she has some help) I'd like to think I
could do that at 93.


I can see she is one wonderful lady but much as I admire her, I could never
.... in a million years ... be persuaded to jump out of an aeroplane!!!
