No, not a Dutch Old Master - our glorious tulips!
With the ongoing lockdown combined with me being on leave and this glorious sunshine, we have inevitably spent days on end getting our extensive gardens into some semblance of order in readiness for the summer. The most congested pots have been split up and repotted, we've recycled old soil as well as managing to get hold of some new (thank you, Wilko!), and rescued some precious specimens that last year were overshadowed under more vigorous growers. It's going to be a lovely show again this season, to cheer us up in these dark times, of that I'm certain...
Meanwhile, as we face the prospect that we still won't be able to go anywhere except home and the remaining "essential shops" and nothing in-between [we're not exactly the "exercising" types], let's console ourselves with a little venture into the exotic lives of glamorous people from other lands - courtesy of the simply faboo
Soft Tempo Lounge.
All this - and house favourites here at Dolores Delargo Towers the Kessler Twins, too!
Ah, that's better...
