Midwinter or Spring

Ahead of time - here is the first Spring crocus on the midwinter day.  

Hopefully there will still be a winter ... soon.  Or perhaps those three frosty days early this month was it!  There are signs of a new Spring for Blip as Blipfuture report having reached 25% of the target needed for securing the future of this site.  We all need to make a commitment - just a pledge of cash until the community buy-out gets gets enough pledges to go forward.  I know a lot of my friends have already pledged, if you have not got around to it yet, now would be a good time :-)
