Six days after Storm Eunice hit, we finally got all our power back on today.
Soooo looking forward to a nice long bath tonight.

Our polytunnel makes the perfect home for these youngsters in winter.
(I like it too - I am thinking about getting a kettle and brew box ??)

Really starting to notice the days getting longer - that's got to be good news!
