My mouth is watering but nine pounds lost so far.....seven more to go for my target. Then....lots of cake! xxEm Parkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04789754528697848623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-86797800956897133742015-02-18T00:27:10.708-08:002015-02-18T00:27:10.708-08:00I have often wondered as the light begins to retur...I have often wondered as the light begins to return and spring is on the horizon, if our bodies also start to demand action and work.

Plus it needed doing. Plenty more where they came from too!<br /><br />Smallholder - there is about a 40 yd stretch on the paddock edge, and then a little triangle of land behind the old mill pond (empty/dry) so plenty to keep me busy.<br /><br />Pat - It was about an hour and a half's work, and then my hand was aching from the secateurs so I came in for a well-earned cuppa. Back out there again today if it's dry.<br /><br />Parsnip - the lemon cake was the best I ever made - SO light and fluffy and lemony. A real prize-winner! I had to smile at your cakes waiting until the summer. I had a slice of mine still-warm . . .Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-52182714580882744272015-02-17T20:15:07.639-08:002015-02-17T20:15:07.639-08:00That is a lot of work.

It felt like being explorers - being able to walk where we hadn't before. <br />How much more have you got to do?Sue in Suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166036914348424622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-5522458387671145202015-02-17T08:22:39.280-08:002015-02-17T08:22:39.280-08:00Well done you for doing all those brambles.
