This is the best part of January, seeing the beginnings of new life in the garden.
Last Autumn I planted bulbs, tulips and daffodils, in my terra cotta pots, as well as adding to the flower beds. All of a sudden they are peeping up above the ground. I can't wait to see the golden glow of the flowers.
Sadly, the weeds are just as busy growing. The ground is so wet that it is almost impossible to do anything productive, and weeds come up with big clumps of earth attached.
We do need a dry day soon.
As does Scotland.
This is such a sad thing to happen.
Abergeldie Castle, close to Balmoral, is teetering on the edge of a swollen river which swept 60 feet of land away.
The owners have moved out.
A piece of history may be lost.
So many people all over England have been affected by the flooding.
It must be heartbreaking to see your house wrecked, under muddy water, sometimes for the third time.
But people rally. It's been compared to the aftermath of the war, everyone joining together to help their neighbours.
