And...it's a wrap! Fantastic to have the wonderful cast and crew of local independent production 'Rozkvet' (Lamb Films) here on Sunday for their very last day of filming.
The potting shed went hi-tech for the day and the green 'room' was in the shade of the apple trees!
Can't wait to see this film written by, and featuring, actor Andrew McNeill and directed by Thomas Po***ck.

TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!
Huge thanks to these hardworking lads and their two staff members, from who shifted masses of woodchip yesterday. We're redesigning a corner of post-storm damaged garden and, with help from Paddy (my garden angel) who laid out surplus logs to mark a path, they'll have the job finished in no time!
Great to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones and I can't wait for their next visit after Easter.
Hoping the weather will be as good as yesterday when we were able to enjoy delicious scones, cream and homemade jam in the sun.
A brilliant job, guys - really well done!
Thanks to .home.bakery
for the yummy scones

I loved seeing the final display of fresh spring flowers, moss and foliage adorning the dining room table and it was just a pity that everyone wanted to take their gorgeous creations home, although I'd have done the same😊
