There Is No Place Like Yew Court

Here at Yew Court the days have been dull and cold and winter seems to be lasting forever. But now at last there is some sunshine coming through here and there and the days are gradually getting longer, giving us the promise of the warm spring days to come.

There are still plenty of wild birds around, including lots of blackbirds, blue tits and great tits and of course our resident squirrel. It is lovely to see them all, it brightens the day.

We have been thinking for a while of buying a car and have been looking at the pros and cons. We have been looking on the internet at the used car sales to compare prices. But now with the threat of fuel prices increasing we are getting a bit dubious of the whole idea. Maybe one day.

It is so lovely here at Yew Court with all the birds and wild life in the garden that more often than not, this is the place where we would most rather be. We are so lucky and I am grateful every day to live here at Yew Court.
