But it does bring back to mind when we first got our puppy, Shimba, in April one year a long time back.
We had a large enclosed back garden with clumps of daffodils - in the lawn mostly, although there were some in the beds and borders. As soon as he was let out into the garden he ran round at full speed biting the heads off all the daffodils... no chance of catching him, so we just had bald stalks! [Just a good job he didnt try eating them.]

"There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you dont need money. Love like youve never been hurt, and, Dance like no ones watching.
Wishing you a beautiful, daffodil day!
Dont be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.
If you want to brighten someones day, pass this on to someone special. I just did! "
