That I can. It's been a busy few weeks with work, family etc. I'm currently
training to climb a mountain with my son next February and that's taking up a
few of the remaining spare hours also.

Usually we get Summer style weather here around November onwards but
incresingly it seems to have shifted forward a month or so to the point that
Jan or Feb feels more the the start of Summer proper.

Yep daffodils (excuse spelling) are poppig up and some native trees are now
in flower. Garden shops are gearing up for a big planting season that kicks
pff late October here.

Best, Paul
