Nooo!! Not more Snooow!


It is now officially Spring. Snow feels so wrong and yet they've forecast more snow for Leicester UK.

BUT Did you know that:
  • It often snows in March [So why are we all so surprised when it happens?]
  • The heaviest recorded snowfall in London was in 1695. It snowed every day for 5 weeks and didn't clear until mid-April. [No repeats this year, please!]
  • Eskimos do NOT have 100 different words for snow. [Why would anyone need that many words?]
  • Chionophobia is a fear of snow. [Oh no! I think I'm suffering from that!]
Do you draw the curtains and curl up in front of the fire when it snows?
Or are you out in the garden building a monster snowman?

Spontaneous Photography

It's that time of year again when I keep bursting into spontaneous attacks of photography.


I'm sure you recognise these flowers from last year but you do realise that...


...they're not the exact same flowers as last year, don't you?


I mean, these flowers have appeared from the bare earth in our garden 
and even though it happens every year...


...it makes me wonder why people don't believe in magic... 


...because it doesn't get more magical than this, now does it!
