Is it over?

Is winter over with? Hope so
been ok last couple of days here, Pete says his daffodils are out, a lot of the bushes at work are flowering, don't ask me what they are, i'm no gardener, its a green bush with little yellow flowers, thats about all I know  

Not that we doubt you Ken but you ain't going to coax us out of the Algarve just yet. Watch for the return of the swallows we will just be a few days behind them

Yes another dry morning

It's not over yet up here in the frozen north, although the sun is shining, there is a strong wind full of ice which cuts you to pieces, so nothing done today.

Hia

Yes gone COLD

Spring has definitely sprung in the Algarve today as the pictures show. 24 degrees with just an odd fluffy cloud in the sky and flowers everywhere.
We keep trying to think of one good reason why we would want to be in England[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]" />[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]" />[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]" />

No need to pay for an email address Cal unless you want your own domain name or something, try Gmail, its free, easy to set up and has good filters

I have a G mail address and also a hot mail but never use either of them, my BT address is known by many contacts all over the world so I need to keep it, it is also on stationary and business cards.

Thanks for the advice though Ken, much appreciated.

I thought it was over, but recent temps of 23 deg have now dropped to the high teens!

We are in Spain!!!

Camping Marjal....just waved bye bye to bob & barb.

Ne're cast a clout until May is out.  That's the plant May, not the month   

Your green bush with yellow flowers could be Forsythia.

I'm not casting owt yet, matter of fact i'll be adding for the 3 night shifts this week   
Could be that, I'll have another look tomorrow
