March

 March seems like another month which dashed past. The weather turned sunny and warmer so we were out and about a lot. I feared that a day or two would see a return of rain, but apart from a very occasional dull day the sunshine continued. 

We had days out near home to Markeaton, Calke Abbey, Elvaston Park, and Chatsworth gardens, and

a quiet couple of days in the Worcestershire countryside with only sheep for company.

There were family celebration with a wedding anniversary and  Mothers Day, so plenty of excuses for treats.

A couple of long-awaited projects got completed too. - On a grand scale we had a new kitchen (or at last new cupboard doors) and on a smaller one I finally finished the last sewing up of my crocheted bag and started a new knitting project.
