Lovely weather today, mostly blue skies, fluffy clouds, 10C. And the daffs are coming out in the garden.

Over the past decade or so, it's become common for crocuses to start blooming here in january. This year, wintet apparently managed to be just cold enough to keep them underground until mid february and not blooming until late Feb / early March, as used to be the norm. It's a pleasure to welcome these back - as well as a reminder that the world's beenin its current state for a year now. Bittersweet spring.

Time for our usual late cold snap. Just hope it won't be as brutal as Colorado's this week.

Resilience exemplified. Fun fact: We were *just* below the snowline today, 50 metres or so more elevation would have seen them covered in snow.
