Microclimate

I've been seeing blips of curly ferns for many weeks now, but still up our hill, we're that bit slower, but glad they have joined us.

I had what I thought was just a yearly dental checkup today... but oh no... only a 5 minute wait (usually half an hour), oh, x-rays, oh a scale and polish too? Surprised by that, I thought I'd chance my arm at the pharmacy for prescriptions I only requested yesterday and required a follow up phone call this morning... ready! Is there more money around or summat?
