Hi Grainne
you've been talking about flowers and things, and I found your posts so inspirational I went out and bought some flowers for our big pots out front :-) they look a lot happier now that they are full of perennials instead of weeds.

I am hoping we will have some big tall striking orange flowers in the center, with trailing purple verbena down the sides- and I even repotted a couple of small pots with some mini ivy. I'll let you know how it goes.

I note my freesias are almost ready to bloom- and our neighbors have the most AMAZING tulips blooming around their trees. They are the big showy parrot tulips- and they are absolutely gorgeous.

I've only seen it alluded to once or twice that Yeats was a fascist. They probably had an axe to grind. Some people look back in history and like to call anyone who was a nationalist a fascist. I think to be a fascist, one had to be a member of Mussolini's Fascist Party.

Speaking of Mussolini, I have a book here written by him called The Corporate State. Flipping through, I swear I'm looking at a blueprint for FDR's New Deal!
