Heralding spring with primroses?

Quiet day; walked hound and met up with Phil and Ted his leonberger. Him Indoors ventured to a a lunch social while I reacquainted carpets with vacuum cleaner.  Much better without external detritus which according to HI is the hound's fault. I have pointed out a lack of furrowed gravel-grabbing treads on canine feet.

Blipped while doing a bit of garden clearing these primrose.

Amazed my order of 27 December arrived today. Am hoping the enclosed Adaptil (dog appeasing pheromone to calm) collar will keep my greyhound calm-ish during the war-zone-fireworks aka New Year's Eve.

Also ordered was a mug and coaster - Chrimbo present to self. See blip.
