I thought you...

...might like to look at some pretty pictures.

Firstly, the pot of Lily of the Valley I have on my patio.

Secondly, a bunch of sweetly scented lilac plundered from the huge tree behind my antique dealer friend Andrew's workshop. I do it every year. I might as well; when I turned up this morning he greeted me cheerfully with "Have you come for the lavender?" Bless 'im.
