Most of my route to the shops was festooned with snowdrops today, with a
nice big patch of winter aconites at the top of the golf course road for
variety - Spring may not be here just yet, but it's beginning to feel
like winter's on the way out.

The crocuses are just coming up along Melville Drive (yellow and purple) -
they always precede the daffs by about a fortnight. Makes the journey to
work even more pleasant.
