Snow etc, on the eve of St Bridget's Day

This weekend has us looking forward to more awful weather.  We're promised gales and rain with a drop in temperatures and the chance of snow.

Well, we've already had a dusting of snow this evening.  Tomorrow will see the forecasted storm reach its peak.  I've signd up for a free weather alert text service from Clare County Council.  had three texts yesterday and today. They take it seriously.

Still no more work done in the garden, but seeds are arriving almost every day.  Later posts will rate the sellers we've used in terms of value, speed of service and postal charges.

Here are the promised rhubarb pictures.


This rhubarb crown had become hollow
inside.  It was so old.


"I'm Rhubarbicus!"



One crown was successfully divided into about seven plants, each with three or four shoots.
