Wishes for a Merry Christmas (NEW PHOTO ADDED ON BOXING DAY)

29 comments


I know I’ve been MIA for a few months now and I wanted to reassure you all that I am well and I’m sure as things hot up in the garden in the Spring (if not before) I will be back in your midst, blogging and commenting. I’ve a broken camera at the moment so current photo taking has been suspended :(

I would wish for each of you a calm, happy and contented Christmas Day and good health and happy gardening in 2012. I consider so many of you as friends and I will soon be back in action and ready to participate in forum life once again.

Blessings to one and all.

This photo was taken some years ago of our lovely grandaughter Iona-Mae (she would have been about 3.5 yrs.) so that would be about 4 yrs. ago. I just love this photo….and she’s still as cute as a button, if a few inches taller and with a very much increased vocabulary! Her middle name should be “chatterbox”… lol

And I’ll now include a photo taken yesterday (Christmas Day)…Nana and the 4 grandchildren. Iona-Mae is in front of me….hasn’t she grown? lol

Ohhh! It's my old friend, Whist! I've missed you! It's lovely to see a wee message from you, it's been ages! Isnt Iona-Mae a total angel! She's sooo cute!
Did you ask Santa for another camera? I hope you can get a hold of one, because we'll all be sitting here waiting with bated breath, to see how your garden has got on since it was finished! I'll look forward to seeing you very soon, Whist, and I hope you have been keeping better too!xx

Cristina....I have not heard from Di for months and often wonder if all is ok with her. If you do manage to speak to her tell her "hi."

It's so nice to post my blog and have all the comments. I will soon be back in action...happy gardening and happy planning for 2012.

Things look bleak in the winter months in the garden so I am looking forward to spring to see how my garden has withstood all the wind and rain! And the summer house will be getting painted and sorted once the warmer days are here...too windy and wet just now :(

Hello Jacquie, it is wonderful to hear from you again. I have been very concerned about you and have missed our regular messages. I hope all goes well with your new garden this year and I look forward to seeing some photos of it when you have a camera again.
I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you all a fantastic New Year.
I look forward to hearing from you again.
Kind Regards, Fabrice xxxx.

Thank you for your kind words, Fabrice. Sorry if I've made you and others concerned for my welfare....just felt I needed to take a back seat for a short spell. I'm perking up again and looking forward to spring. For now we have to be content with making plans for the new garden (get out the gardening books and dream a bit).

We did have a nice Christmas (especially as our son returned back to the UK after being back in Canada for 2 yrs.). It's made Christmas just a bit more special.

My best wishes for a great year ahead, Fabrice. xx
