February through to March

Well what can one say about February it's a grim month and seems to drag its heels I just want spring to arrive.  We waited for the grues to make an appearance they lift the spirits and are such a spectacular sight I feel very lucky that we are on their flight path, apart from grey skies wind rain and cold that about sums up February not just 2015 it's been the same this year also 😕

March wasn't much better weather wise it was up and down some beautiful spring like days then the temperature would plummet lots of tree cutting and tidying up but nothing exciting happened 

Update after a 2yr break

Well! A lot has happened since I last made an entry on this blog and it suddenly occurred to me that I should update it.

Not sure where to start my last entry was Christmas 2013 but I think I will begin with January 2015.

After an enjoyable New Year's Eve I think I got a bout of food poisoning well maybe a tummy upset it kept me on the loo for about 18hrs no sickness or pain, I kept thinking this is what a colonic irrigation must feel like, after it settled down I was a bit scared of eating anything so just kept it to very simple light meals. After a natter with my sister in SA she was telling me about Banting an eating lifestyle popular in SA which follows the HFLC when I looked back at what I had been eating it contained very few carbs so I decided to carry on with my regime and started to cut down on my sugar intake it was a real surprise at how much sugar was in food stuffs.

At the beginning of January we acquired a new cockerel called dottie he has turned out to be a lovely lad not aggressive and is gentle with his ladies.

January wasn't a good month we sat for Three days watching the Paris shootings at the Charlie hedbo offices it was so shocking....again sister in SA was calling to our horror we had been very near to the area on our visit to Paris June 2014......We do love Paris ♥️

The only other event in January was my decision not to go back to French lessons I came to the conclusion that I was too thick to carry on and expensive, I will try again one day but I'm getting older!
