Roots, A Gift and Flames

The hyacinths I planted in the Victorian glass just a month ago have developed roots and I have brought them out of the dark and put them on a windowsill.I’m hoping, perhaps rather optimistically, that they will be in flower for my birthday in two weeks!  I love the pattern made by the roots swirling round the glass.

We took a small gift to Sara at Make A Mends today, a small and curious object which I inherited but don’t know anything about.I knew Sara would love it and she did. It turns out, on googling, that it is a hairbrush albeit only 3 cms diameter.!

Tony Benn is one of my heroes and features in my quotations book several times. Here are more of his wise words.

We need to keep those flames alive. I wrote about Tony Benn  here if you’d like to read it.
