Q: Can I come out yet?

A: NO.

I should wait a bit longer.

I can see this daffodil from the kitchen window. It was the first to flower last year too.
It's very brave.

I have lots more daffs in the back garden that are waiting for more sun.

Boy, but the weather has been atrocious today...
I'm actually beginning to get used to the sound of wind pounding on the roof, squealing through gaps and rattling goodness knows what. I'm not used to the water everywhere though. That's getting ridiculous.


Oh, for a week of calm, dry, sunny weather with lambs and daffodils and no sloshing or squelching....
