I've found some wild ones blooming in the garden and others just about
to open. What a cheery sight! It really does make me think what a
marvel nature is, pressing on with its plans despite this horrid winter
and the cold wind that's blowing today even with the sun out.

Happens every year :-))
Followed by Summer, then Autumn, then Winter comes around again.
You see if I am not right :-))
Brilliant wall to wall sunshine with blue skies here on the Isle of Wight.

Definitely won't be the case if the Meteorological Office forecast a really
hot summer, as Spring will be followed by Autumn...

The Keukenhof opens in 2 weeks and there is no sign of life.

All anyone can do is x fingers! Everything but everything, is held
back this year. Last night we had -2 and the world is just touched
with white. Very beautiful but no longer welcome! However, it's a
brilliantly sunny day and there was a gorgeous dawn sky, so let's hope
for warmer weather soon.
