here come the blues...

There have been lots of snowdrops and crocus on blip lately so I was glad to spot some blue today. A soft blue periwinkle peeping through in this nearby garden. I thought the whole set up was rather lovely under the tree with so many colours and the combination of tree and needles and cones providing a background. It's going to look even better in a few weeks when the daffodils come through .
I was here to pick up a bargain. Mumof4wildings suggested a few weeks ago that a wax bath might be helpful for my wrist. I'd posted on our local FB page to see if anybody would lend me one to try before I committed to buying one but there had been no response. I have been looking them up on Amazon and was about to bite the bullet when a message came today. Someone nearby had something similar to sell (for £10) which seemed very reasonable. I went to pick it up and although I haven't tried it out yet, that day will come. Fingers crossed it helps .
I've had very good customer service recently, yesterday I received through the post from Airfix a set of wheels and axle for our small toy VW microbus (Campervan if you must, but as a 60s girl, I'm an Alice's Restaurant fan! Google it lol.) What service, it's our fault they were lost but they've been replaced at no charge, not even postage.
I finally got around to making my second batch of marmalade today. I ran out of time though so I'll do the final stages tomorrow .
We had a home made pizza for dinner, extra, it was delicious.
Thank you for your lovely comments and hearts for Josie yesterday, she's such fun!
