End of the Month View - November 2012

The heating is on full blast and the coal fire is lit each evening ... I don't mind the cold outside as long as I have a warm house!

I should have planted more bulbs; I should have collected more of the fallen leaves; I should have turned the compost but I didn't.  Does it matter?  Will anyone complain?  No!

The garden is looking frosty and bedraggled but the bird feeders are full so the visitors are quite happy.

Ice white Cyclamen and Frozen Ivy ........





 .............  Cold Roses .........



................and a  Cool cat.

 

 According to Sarah Raven my Hydrangea flowers should have been picked in October, dried, painted and hung off the mantlepiece.  The roses should be part of a pot pourri by now and my Christmas cake should be swimming in brandy.  Well, tick the last one!
