Amaryllis opens

Thought I'd take a close up of these beautiful, delicate petals. My Extras show the whole flower head and the tall stem.

It's the cheeriest thing I could find to photograph today. While the rest of the country seems to be enjoying snow (and I'm genuinely not envious), we have the less pretty rain, wind and fog. Brrrr.

Today I finished one of my birthday jigsaws - it's been an absolute joy to do and helped take my mind of the lurgy, now entering its third week! Ugh!
