The clocks spring forward tonight - the countdown has ended

[cardiffsteve]

Little white snowdrop just waking up,
Violet, daisy, and sweet buttercup,
Think of the flowers that are under the snow,
Waiting to grow!

And think what a number of queer little seeds,
Of flowers and mosses, of ferns and of weeds,
Are under the leaves and under the snow,
Waiting to grow!

Think of the roots getting ready to sprout,
Reaching their slender brown fingers about,
Under the ice and the leaves and the snow,
Waiting to grow!

No seed is so small, or hidden so well,
That God cannot find it; and soon he will tell
His sun where to shine, and His rain where to go,
Making it grow!

You feeling OK Steve?

For the first time this year the sun has got to my 'morning cuppa' bench.....it must be spring YAY!

I know a little pussy, its coat is silver-grey
It lives down in the meadow, not very far away
But although it is a pussy it will never be a cat
For its a pussy willow.......now what do you think of that?

It's true that what you learn early stays with you for life! Learned that when I was 6 years old.

I have to wait until teatime to have a cuppa in the sun in my north facing garden , although by midsummer I can have an after lunch cuppa if I go right to the end of it. For a sun-filled morning cuppa I have to stand on the front doorstep

So when is it going to start warming up? Been cold and grey here all day.

[Jeanied]

It has been really warm here today and the little leaves are appearing on the trees. I am sure I have missed the blackthorn already!

So when is it going to start warming up? Been cold and grey here all day.

I was out in my t-shirt Monday and today.

Oh and Sunday at the lottie. As I heard Roger telling all the blokes - And Zaz has just got a t-shirt on.

[Florence Fennel]

I don't know how it works, but my Golden Girls are always here for the night when the clocks go back, but never when they go forward! Glad it didn't rain on you Zaz, or they'd have thought all their birthdays had come at once

[zazen999]

LOL FF. Silly old men!

Anyway - we're into single figures. now.

[cardiffsteve]
