The First Day of Spring

Spring is late this year after such a cold winter. It's here no doubt, plants have popped up, shoots have appeared! The trouble is that today was the first day of spring and it rained all day!!

Six Nations Rugby Union Tournament

Well, as predicted the French won their 5th 6 nations tournament as well as the Grand Slam which I dont think they've won before. England put up a superb fight and played some seriously good rugby but sadly the French reigned supreme and the referee was not only blind but obviously has a holiday home in the South of France!! He missed at least one penalty, three off sides and three fouls - he needs a guide dog!

The end is nigh!

After eight months, four interviews and countless applications I have been offered a job! It's only a contract but as its setting up a Procurement Dept its going to look good on my CV!

...and as a reward to myself and an early birthday present I've bought myself a pair of Du Barry galway boots - they are lovely! Some people get all excited over Jimmy Choo and Prada but I love countryside labels like Barbour, Du Barry, Le Chameau. Aigle!

Dont they just make your heart beat faster :)
