Lighter nights, birds tweeting, green trees.

I hate the dark winter days.

I agree. I hate winter.

I'm fed up of the cold. It is cold all the time, and damp.

I am NOT looking forward to hayfever (sneezing has already started!) and spiders and daddy-long-legs....

But lighter evenings and warmer days: yes!

Today in my tiny, dank little garden there were BUDS and also something green and shooty coming up. It's good. Smile The birds are hysterical every morning too...as they go about their nesty stuff. It's marvelous.

I saw a fox run across the road with a baby rabbit hanging out of its mouth yesterday.

Does that count?

There are already some daffodils out where I am.

I love spring.

Ooooh! Pretty pink blossoms on trees!! Yes!

And tulips! and .... oh bollocks. I have no more excuses for not going for a "run". It is light enough now when I wake up and when I get home from work. Nowhere to hide in the light of spring. Best I get my trainers on (which is a good thing seeing I am a stone heavier than I was last time this year!)

Running?

Are you somewhat mad?

It's spring here already. I spent 5 hours outside gardening today without being cold.

Spring has sprung.

Totally agree. I love spring. People seem generally happier and everything comes alive. Plus I get to so my annual Easter chick topiary!

Winter, no. It's dark, miserable and I whinge endlessly when it's cold. Even fires, Christmas and pumpkins can't save it.

Scarf?

You're a big Jessie if you wear a scarf up here...

Daffodils don't do it for me...

Spring heralds all sorts of killingness.

My bastard cats are very prolific hunters at dawn. Which comes earlier in Spring.

Obvs.
