Noticed the daffs had started flowering on the roundabout outside the office last week (Bracknell) when I got back to work after Chrimbo.

Even a complete wuss like me got out on the bike at the weekend. Felt SO much better for doing so.

Nipped out to a club meeting last night, and spent a good bit of time beforehand taking the liners out of my textiles. Got back around 9ish with the trousers vents open.

Don't look too good for the Dafodils.
.Rubarb is in short supply because of no frost.
