Big World ... Small Garden: April (snow) showers
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008/04/april-snow-showers.html
Sunday, 6 April 2008. Was it only a few days ago that I was cutting the grass because the weather was so warm and dry and the leaves were budding on the trees? Well, that all changed today, it has snowed all afternoon and forecast for minus 1 tonight! Here are a few pictures of the snow. I know that you don't really want to see snow in April, but your garden does look lovely! I love your blog! Your garden is so pretty. 7 April 2008 at 11:31. Oh dear. so you got snow too! 7 April 2008 at 16:16. Subscribe ...

Big World ... Small Garden: colour on a grey, damp Sunday afternoon
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008/04/colour-on-grey-damp-sunday-afternoon.html
Sunday, 20 April 2008. Colour on a grey, damp Sunday afternoon. The alpine clematis on the fence is dripping with fat blue flower buds - gorgeous. It's a bit chilly to 'garden' even though hubby has gone off this afternoon to Durham for the first cricket match of the season - warmly wrapped! I wonder how long the Hosta shoots will last until the slugs gobble them up? Small flowered clematis dripping with blooms. Good old pansies - still flowering, better than ever! As you know, creepy crawlies and me don...

Big World ... Small Garden: June 2008
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 8 June 2008. Orchids, swans, terns and buttercups. See how the orchids are thriving! A swan too close - boy, can they hiss! It wasn't us - a dog (not ours) got too close to the cygnets. The weather has been warm and sunny so a couple of days ago we had a short stroll around Watergate Park which was built on a former colliery spoil heap. You may remember that last year around this time I spotted a beautiful flower which turned out to be a. Yellow iris around the pond and below a group of Buttercups.

Big World ... Small Garden: August 2007
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 20 August 2007. Normal service will resume soon. Mam's shoulder is feeling a lot better and she'll be blogging again soon. Whilst she's not doing any gardening she's planning a huge list of jobs for us all to do! I've popped on to share some photographs of our garden visitor who arrived yesterday. Although we get lots of birds in our garden we've never had a squirrel in this garden, he caused quite a stir when he arrived. Love from Andrea x. Tuesday, 14 August 2007. Love from Andrea xx.

Big World ... Small Garden: March 2008
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 10 March 2008. Spring flowers during March. These photographs were put in a draft on 10th March, and here we are on 3rd April and I'm just getting around to publishing them on my blog! British Summer Time began last Sunday and the clocks went forward one hour - my body hasn't adjusted yet and when I get up at 6am it still feels like 5 am! March has flown past and I haven't done any blogging - sorry! A beautiful Spring day - wall to wall sunshine and blue, blue sky. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Big World ... Small Garden: May 2008
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 14 May 2008. Summertime at last . We've had some glorious sunshine, really warm (we could actually eat our evening meal on the patio! And everything in the garden is bursting with fresh colour. Remember my first attempt at making compost in a huge plastic bin? Well, it works a treat. To-day I have shovelled 4 wheelbarrows of dark, crumbly compost - I am so pleased! I will continue to add my veg and garden waste and will look forward to more free compost at the end of the year! View my complete...

Big World ... Small Garden: ......... on a cold and frosty morning!
http://bigworldsmallgarden.blogspot.com/2008/02/on-cold-and-frosty-morning.html
Friday, 22 February 2008. On a cold and frosty morning! We've enjoyed some beautifully sunny days with clear blue skies, but the overnight frosts have been very thick - but very pretty. These are photographs taken during the past week are of plants in my garden, early morning before the sun melted the frost. Frost so thick, it almost looks like snow. Hi Mary, even though the frost hurts the plants. It is prety. 24 February 2008 at 17:14. Beautiful, frosty pics Mary! 24 February 2008 at 23:49. Fingers cro...
