9C, bit grey.
I don’t like the clock change outside a holiday. Work today has been like struggling with a hang-over. Holidays should be fixed in my view. Another reason for disestablishment.
Good news today- Japan has been ordered to stop whaling.

6C, cold day with hard frost.
Poor magnolia was burnt by the hard frost on Tuesday morning. Cold weather waited for spring before visiting us.
This is quite an early flowering variety, so it’s vulnerable really.

7+C, S wind, smells of spring.
Every Saturday, I get the same headache. What is this- cumulative lack of sleep, stress from work? What can be done to fix it?
Had a good day at work yesterday- its was the DofE taster day in Sutton Park. Hard work, non-stop but refreshing. The sun shone, the spirit lifted and skin toned.
All smells of spring reminding me of the simple pleasure of hiking and camping. Easter- Wales, summer- the Highlands.
This year, I will do the things that can’t be done if you have a dog – Trifan and others.
I hope to find another dog in my life this summer. If it were just me, I’d have two. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have two poodles from the same litter.
Found a bird’s nest in the garden. It’s made of bits of spruce, dry moss, and white fluff. The fluff could easily be sheep’s wool, or even some synthetic stuffing. I can only presume the nest blew out of the hedge in recent gales.

7°C, no wind, clear.
Spring is just starting, ontime for the first of March. The garden is coming alive, and I have over 100 bulbs for a more colourful summer.
After a decade, I cleared the lockup (where I keep the bikes) in three corners was evidence of mouse nest building, they must have collected seeds from the bird feeder. To make themselves comfey, they made beds of dry moss.
