I hope that everyone had a good Christmas and enjoyed themselves. Mine was very quite and I mostly spent it indoors reading, drinking tea and eating biscuits. I only went to the plot a couple of times for a brief look round and certainly didn’t linger.
Following my recent post Plot and windowsill, about tomatoes fellow blogger Sharon, My Slice of Life, very kindly offered to send me some dwarf Red Robin seeds which she had saved. I received them a few days later along with this lovely, and very appropriate, card.
I look forward to growing this variety along with the dwarf yellow Aztek that I mentioned in the post.
The weather next week looks like being much the same as it has been, except not quite as cold or windy as it has been. I’ll probably take a look round the plot some days but doubt if I’ll be doing much, if any, plotting.
Have a good week, take care and I’ll see you all next year!
(Please note that my next post will be on Sunday 4th January)
Flighty's plot 
It is painfully cold at the moment. I just put some out of date couscous on the bird table for the sparrows. It is still steaming, so I hope they eat it before it freezes too hard! Stay warm!

We spent a lovely Christmas time with Son and children. Now home and back to a freezing cold flat, making ready to see Daughter & Co. to welcome 2026. Just bird feeding in the garden!
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026 to you, then back to the garden with seeds, thanks to another garden friend of mine 🙂 A xx

What a cute name, Red Robin, for tomatoes and card. It’s been in the 60s F here in central Kentucky over the past few days and is expected to drop to the 20s F overnight. All very strange. Yes, it will be book-reading, tea and biscuits to see in the New Year!

Liz it sure is. That’s a big drop in temperature. All rather unsettling. Good for you, happy reading and enjoy. xx

I hate this cold weather, I’m looking forward to spring now that Christmas is out of the way. Red Robin in a very apt name for a tomato seed received at this time of year. Wishing you a happy, healthy and peaceful new year.
