Catkins

I gave a talk at JJ’s family research class this morning on my experiences of trying to find ancestors and how taking my DNA has significantly helped that process.

This afternoon I’ve wandered around over the back, being careful to avoid all the rabbit scrapes.  I think these are Alder catkins, which are just emerging.

Another text from my surgery asking me to take my blood pressure, and if I don’t have a kit, to request one from them.  A strange request bearing in mind my blood pressure is low.  However, I’ve made a note to ask my doctor when she rings on Friday morning.
