Happy Thursday. On Time To Talk day, I have been chatting so some lovely folk up in the Rhondda. Back home now and time to look for garden treasures.

We have quite a collection of early winter flowering plants including snowdrops and winter aconites.

The milder weather is bringing them along nicely.
