My Barberton daisy (gerbera to most people, I guess) has bloomed again, entirely without encouragement or prompting from me. These always remind me of my ouma, who had them in her garden when I was a very little girl; I was pleased when they suddenly became fashionable and available again.
*"Reasons to be Cheerful, Part 3" is a song by Ian Dury and the Blockheads that's been popping into my head at inopportune moments for, oh, the past 20 years or so. Maybe this will exorcise it.

Too weird - I also associate barberton daisies with my grandmother, although I honestly cannot remember ever seeing them in her garden. They're jolly little fellows.
The flower is beautiful :)
Thanks for the rah rah about Tuscany and job quitting too. I really didn't think of ever going there (I mean, isn't much of Belleville a carbon copy? snigger) , but there's a family reunion that's just not missable, and they're paying accommodation, so...
Love the barberton daisy pic.
