      It's good to have you back Nick and raring to go in the garden again. :) I think the weather's got everyone down this winter, parts of my garden are still under 3ft of snow after the snowstorm a week or so ago and I can't get anything done out there.

      I like the sound of the Italian clock! :dbgrtmb:

      Temperatures are supposed to hit 10C minimum from the 11th April onwards, fingers crossed. :biggrin:

              Hi there Nick.
              Cor that was a treat to see you'd been posting when I logged on today :dancy: .We've all tried to be brave and upbeat about this cold,grey month but it got to us all in the end. But it was always nice to know we'd give and get support from each other.
              So good to see you back and you know what a glutton I am for piccies so get your brain in gear and get snapping,
              xx Jenny xx

                Hi Nick, good to see you back. I'd love to see a photo of your clock, I have a small collection of little electric clocks, I love the 1930s one with bakelite cases.
