We almost got it here, in London today. My daffodils are flowering, so are my hyacninth and violets, there is blackthorn and gorse in the hedgerows along the road and cherry blossom out in Russell Square Gardens.

There have been a couple of days this week where my dining room has been hot enough to sit in wearing just a Tshirt and trousers... Raven has taken to stretching out on the dining table to sun himself. Even saw my first cycling shorts on Thursday.
