    A well deserved award to David Olusoga

    He`s good but my favourite is Lucy Worsley, she tells a cracking history with all the fibs left out.

    It`s just for a fit. I've bought everything else, shower enclosure, wall panels, tray, silicone. It`s so difficult getting a plumber these days.

    Tis the yellow season. Daffs, Dandelions, & the Rape seed is in flower here. It`s a gorgeous sunny day here in s/e Durham but don`t be fooled, there are a few frosty days in the week ahead, in other words a typical English spring.

    I can`t remember what these Daffs are called. Three flowers per stem with a lovely scent. The blue flowers are Glory of the Snow in todays glorious sunshine.

    Surely that`s not all your garden is it. Looks more like a park. You need a few sheep to keep the grass down ! Yellow bush looks cheerful, is it a Broom ?

    He looks like he`s lost a pound & found a tanner. If he had brains he would be dangerous (all politicians ) You don`t look at the mantel piece when you stoke the fire. Found it before it was lost i bet. Her/his face would sour vinegar. Don`t spoil the ship for a halfpence of tar.
