Happy New Year!

Spring flowers and sunny photos for the first one of the year,  might cheer up those who have had a wet Christmas.

This gorse doesn't normally burst into bloom till February or so,  and I think the Giant Hyacinth orchid should be nearer March time...




I'm not a fan of ironing and normally only get the ironing board out when we are running out of pillow cases or  t-shirts which is about once every 4 weeks or so.  The days of 5 smart work shirts a week have long gone,  but as this has been a Christmas festive time, there were smart shirts and trousers in the basket today along with every pillow case that we own.  A friend of mine has a 'steam station'  which apparently gets the ironing done very fast but I had a wonderful view this afternoon of blue sky and sunshine which helped make a boring job go a little bit quicker. 

However, the forecast has flakes of snow as from 8pm tonight, although when I checked the snow levels on the Sierra Nevada ski website,  they say the snow line will be 1200 - 1500 metres and we are only 850.  So maybe no snow just yet.










Happy New Year to you all,  carry on reading,  hope that this year brings everyone continued health and happiness and maybe wealth too  -  if that's not too many things to wish for!
