Spring is on its way!

I know I am preempting this ever so slighty. Last week we were out & about & I noticed a lot of bulbs & flowers starting to raise their frosty little heads & I couldn't help but get excited!

Winter is sooo dreary in London. It's not any colder than Canberra & has been much less wet too. The thing that will drive you to the point of taking your own life (& possibly others) is the lack of sunlight. This is both in the length of daylight (getting up when it is dark, coming home after is is dark) & in the endless grey that is the sky for the time inbetween the pitch black hours. There have been only a handful fo days where the sky has been blue during the past serveral months & it has sapped the joy right out of life (temporarily)

So, I am extrememly excited to present to you - this seasons coming attractions - glorious, joy bringing flowers. Expressing their happiness in the best way they know how. What a sight for sore eyes.
