Welocme to springtime!
« on: March 21, 2009, 09:02:42 am »
For the last few days we have had beautiful, warm sunshine. Yesterday, I was able to cut my grass for the second time this year. This morning the birds are singing, daffodils are gently swaying in the breeze and a multitude of brightly coloured crocus are smiling cheerfully from the flower beds.

Welcome to the spring, the most uplifting season, with its promise of longer, warmer days, holidays and the enjoyment of nature's beauty.

Lovely words Oldspice!  Yes, spring is here and I'm starting to appreciate my new home at last.  I have an aversion to wearing coats and have now put them away until October.  I'd rather freeze!

Another beautiful day here today. Yesterday, we went for a stroll around Stamford, a beautiful town a few miles up the A1. I took my coat off - and we saw a butterfly!

Today is very cold and very windy. You southerners don't know you're born. Get yourselves up here and experience real weather.

Well, it's only a month ago since we had eight inches of snow on the ground!

My lawn has had flowering daisies for a few weeks now and the daffodils have finished.  Na na ni na na!

Don't come crying to me when you are all sunburnt and me and pham are still walking around in the cold with big coats on.
