I can already begin to the signs of the daffodils in my garden appearing as the green shoots pop up through the soil and in my mind I can picture the splendour in the months to come.

One of my favourite places to visit when the daffodils are at their peak is Hampton Court -one of the homes which belonged to Henry 8th - for more information on Hampton Court click here.

Here are two photos I took last spring

Scenic Sunday

The Thames Barrier Park (London) is just 20 minutes drive from our house and, sometimes, when we have a free hour or so Nigel & I will drive over and wander around the park, enjoy a cuppa and look out over the River Thames then return home feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and relaxed.

London Holds My Heart

I'd kill to see the lights of London

Out of the windows of my room

Or to gaze upon the streets of Cairo

And farther out all of the pharaohs' tombs

I'd love to see the Eiffel Tower

And the Louvre's pieces of art

But there is only one city I could stay in

For only London holds my heart

To gaze across Scottish meadows

And bask in the light of an Irish moon

To hear the street musicians of RomeDoling out their classic tunes

I want to fall asleep at sunset In the snug bed of an Israel inn

And sip the finest of Greek wines

And lay with Arabian silks caressing my skin

How it would be to walk the deserts of Mecca

Or bathe in the Nile river for a few nights

To wander the vast jungles of Africa

And see the exotic birds take flight

What I wouldn't give to run up the stairs of old cathedrals

In ancient cities made up of ancient art

Though there is only one city

I can ever belong toLondon Holds My Heart
