Ruddick Garden Gifts

Half way to the weekend all ready thank goodness.  Hope you all had a brilliant bank holiday and for once the weather for most was good I think.  We celebrated James' birthday on Monday and we decided to go on the train to Dumfries for the day.   It was Alfies first time on a train and he loved it, as you can see he enjoyed watching the world go by out of the window.  However, we must have picked the coldest place in Britain as it was absolutely freezing!!  What a change yesterday though.  We had glorious sunshine and temperatures up to 24.  So I got out in the garden and took some pictures.  I thought you might like to see some.  This one is of Steve our gremlin.  He hides in the border but is quite harmless.

 These are some gorgeous spring flowers, the three headed daffodil smells lovely and I think this is a passiflora but I'm not sure - it looks so delicate though and the colour is beautiful.  The last
couple of photos are of Alfie, who enjoyed being out in the garden but wasn't too keen on the heat.  After all his running round he took himself off onto the bench to chill and relax in the sun.  What a life eh?  Well, that's about it for today.  I really hope the weather is going to get better for us all and soon, but I am not holding out much hope!  Never mind, at least if you are inside you can take a good look round our website and see all the lovely things we have to offer.
