WHERE IN THE WORLD IS BILBO: Cork, Ireland

Bilbo arrived bright and early this morning!Not a sign of jetlag, he just wanted to get outdoors and see if Ireland was as green and wet as he had heard.He introduced himself to my Buddha who was a bit bemused at this tiny visitor!
Yep,Ireland is every bit as wet and windy as they say! It even rains from a blue sky, Bilbo in one of my pots getting some shelter and a bird's eye view of the garden.
We will take him on walk about today and hope to have him on his merry way by Friday afternoon.I will check the comments on Friday morning and get the girls to pick the next recipient and send him off.
Bilbo arrived to me with a couple of lovely gifts and a card from Anna, I know you are on Hols at the minute but when you are reading this Anna,a big Thank you.
