Daffy-Down-Dilly

Daffy-Down-Dilly has come up to town,

In a yellow petticoat and a green gown

Our green-fingered friend Bob [he of the splendid leeks] has planted some delightful miniature daffodils in the flower bed at the side of our church premises. They are ‘fluttering and dancing in the breeze’ as per Wordsworth, but Mr M’s happy little daffs reminded me more of the children's nursery rhyme than the classic poem!

  2. We HAD a couple of brave souls in flower, then it hailed and the stems got broken. They are now cheering up the bathroom.
