The visitor by happypat

The visitor

I looked out of my bedroom window the other morning just in time to see Wilf walking home after visiting Harry.
I don't like him coming to the back door because our Lily is frightened of him even though he is a really soft cat. He sits by the back door waitng for soft Harry to feed him titbits.

So cold today I am staying inside!

Three good things:
1. Later today we have two Canadian girls coming to stay for two nights. One of them is the daughter of our exchange Young Farmers girl back in the 1980's. I have kept in touch with Jane & now her daughter is visiting. I pick them up at some railway station tonight.
2. Vest back on again, 'don't cast a clout till May is out' so they say!
3. Socks.
The trees are budding out all over Pat , but such cold winds again -- I agree with you electric blanket on to warm the bed last night ,and bed socks !!

@happypat

Ah OK, thank you. I've been photographing elm blossom and from a distance your trees looked a bit the same.

What a beautiful garden. Yes, it certainly has got colder, and I've put most of my winter clothes in the loft!

Great shot of the garden and I like your three good things. So cold..... socks are so comforting in chilly weather.

At first I thought that Wilf was a guy who had fallen asleep in the kitchen and was walking home, then I saw the puss! Lawn looks nicely mowed. Never heard of that old saying but looked it up and can add: "Till hawthorne is out"!

@maggiemae The front lawn is full of moss Maggie, it disappears after a while but it's really noticeable from upstairs. Yes I have heard that extra bit but had forgotten.

Lovely neat garden you have. It must be the week for old sayings, first me with donkeys years and now you will don't cast a clout ....

This is an adorable story and a sweet capture of Wilf. Sounds like he has a good thing going with Harry. Hope the spring temps start to warm up for you, Pat. It's been unusually cool on this side of the pond as well. Enjoy your B&B guests! How wonderful to have a second generation coming to stay. A testament to your gracious hospitality and personality.
