Lovely to speak to you at last. I didn't realise you sounded so foreign!! Not sure who the elderly women were you were dreaming about, we are all sooooooo much younger than you.

I hear that the snow is making an unwelcome return at the weekend, apparently, not to be a messenger of doom, it will be colder than last week and last until March. :o Just put my big thick coat and boots away, should have known better :!:

Yes March sounds great, I remember it was very warm last year from about the 16th onwards, let's hope that the 'Cool April and May' will turn out to be incorrect. :cry: Have my spring clothes all at the ready Aunty Em, I seem to have lived in the same thick jumpers and coats since Xmas, am bored with them now, need to wear something else! Enjoy both of you xx.

My mum said they'd forecast 15 degrees fot the UK, not jealous at all (at least we're talking plus figures here now!!)
At least my aquilegas are still green, amazing that a layer of snow can insulate against -17 celcius!!
