Damn things are blossoming a month early. I could get to like El Niño.

Don't get used to it. La Niña follows as part of the ENSO cycle.

It's very pleasantly mild over this weekend here in Blighty.

Here are some bulbs I planted last autumn coming up and primulas in the grass at the front of my house.

Ah, the joys of a nice warm spring day./
Meanwhile, however,
Storm 'Katie' is currently blowing a gale and rain over my locality.

Booh!
