    Seriously? Your very own massive magnolia tree??? Wow. What a blessing ๐Ÿ˜Š Do you have a large garden? I only have a small balcony as I'm in an apartment. But I'm grateful for my balcony and my kitty cat Angel loves it!

    Sorry for my late reply @StarryEyed and @JessieJ. I didn't make it to my local park but I did go to a bigger park at the weekend with my husband and daughter and it was lovely. I felt so at peace, the sun was shining, and my daughter had lots of fun on the swings. I love the pictures of the bees. I'll go and have a look at Pets Corner now @JessieJ. I saw my neighbours duck waddle past the window earlier closely followed by my neighbour with some bread trying to coax her back ๐Ÿ˜†

    So today when I was in Tesco I saw the Toblerone Edgy Easter eggs again where you only get 4 truffles with the egg for a steep price. They look really nice as I love Toblerone and I thought hopefully after Easter there'll be some left and greatly reduced in price.

    I then thought I wonder if a large Toblerone bar would be better value for money? So I went to some other shelves where they were and it turns out they are much better value for money, you actually get a lot more with the bar and it's way cheaper.

    A Toblerone Edgy Easter Egg with 4 truffles 285g ยฃ15 (Clubcard price ยฃ11)

    A Toblerone bar 340g ยฃ6 (Clubcard price ยฃ4.95).

    I also spotted a box of Toblerone truffles as well, these and the bar together are still better value for money than the egg with truffles, the total weight and cost 520g ยฃ12 (Clubcard price ยฃ8.95), so I bought them as well.

    I've put them out of sight so hopefully I don't give into temptation and start eating them before Easter Sunday, or as I like to call it, Easter egg day.

    Oh @Rachel_Scope what a beautiful picture you paint of your visit to the park. Thank you for sharing your experience. How delightful! Swings are a like child's meditation. ๐Ÿ˜Š I wish there were adult swings. There probably are somewhere in the world. And the neighbour's duck image??? Bust a gut! ๐Ÿ˜†

    @Ross1975 congratulations on a fabulous Easter score. You're quite the bargain shopper, eh?! I haven't bought my Easter chocolate yet. Thanks for the ideas.

    @JessieJ I'll find pics of my darling doggie Buddie soon and post them in Pets Corner. Like your Hattie, she was a small breed - a Yorkiepooh weighing under 5 lbs. She was with me for the first 11 of my 19 years with my partner, from 2000 until 2011. She was always his dog, but she owned both of our hearts. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    I've never seen those toblerone eggs @Ross1975! You're very good for resisting until Easter Sunday, I've already eaten loads.

    Ooh I'd love to be able to be like that @StarryEyed. Well done for getting there ๐Ÿ˜Š

    My new happy thing is a colourful slinky. We have one that is currently a bit mangled as we let our daughter play with it but I really want one just for me so I can learn cool tricks! This will be me soon (minus the moustache!).

    @Rachel_Scope I saw a kid playing with a slinky in the mall yesterday. Oh I hope they catch on again. They're such fun!

    I'm bringing them back @StarryEyed ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'll buy all my friends one for their birthday! Love that picture, very emotive.

    Yes, @Rachel_Scope ! I'll buy some too. Let's flood the world with slinkies! Such silly, innocent fun! ๐Ÿ˜

    I wish I could find a comparable pic for a boy. This is the best I can come up with...

    Of course any gender could fit all the pics. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Here are some pics I took of one of my favourite trees, the bottle brush tree. They certainly do look like bottle brushes! I love their vibrant colour and unique structure right down to the little details. This is the first year seeing them budding, which was spectacular.
