Mel (& Paul) Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Yesterday it was minus 5 on the way to work. Today feels really spring like - lovely sunshine and really quite balmy at 8degrees. Just got back from Sherborne and had a lovely drive through the countryside looking at the snowdrops and daffodills coming out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Aaah! My daffs aren't out at all yet. The crocuses are though. There may be signs of grass in the back garden too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Aaah! My daffs aren't out at all yet. The crocuses are though. There may be signs of grass in the back garden too! Errr grass, what's that? We've got mud, more mud and yet more mud, with a very occasional green bit Our daffs are budding, not yet in flower, but the catkins, crocus and hellebores are looking very cheerful. I'm sure spring won't be too much longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Dont mind if I do Thank you very much Would you like some nibbles to go with that - I've got some rather scrummy vegetable crisps (which must count towards my five a day surely? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 I had some from Pret the other week - I really like the beetroot ones Yes, I am sure they count. And wine too - its grapes isn't it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I love the beetroot crisps. Yup - wine - grapes gin and tonic - not only do you get the lemon which counts but the quinnine in the tonic stops you getting malaria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
