It’s All About (The) Rose

Clare worked her shift today which meant that the delivery of her ‘Wren Rose’ didn’t have to be carried out in ‘stealth mode’. Having long wanted a ‘Wren Rose’, grown and named to commemorate the centenary of the foundation of the Women’s Royal Naval Service, (WRNS or Wrens to the rest of us in the RN), I set myself the task of locating one for her, not easy, but in the end I had one shipped from the far side of the country, Norfolk.

There’s no point in trying to hide a one metre high 10cm square box with leaves showing through the hand holes so a quick wrap with Disney Princess birthday paper, after all Mrs S tells me she is a princess, and the lovely Mrs S received her first birthday gift only a week or so early.

Great Excitement.

Elsewhere it was supermarket shopping day, trolley for me and a basket for Vegan food for Sam. 
The sunshine is great, the garden beginning to bloom and Clare is on holibobs from Sunday.
