is it spring yet?
The lovely pretty daffodils in my kitchen seem to think so:
However it is still February, so I suspect there's a little while to wait yet.
Not that I mind winter, as such.. it's just that this one has been soooo cold. I don't have gas in my flat, so have to rely on crap inefficient electric panel heaters to keep warm. Plus thermals, fleeces, fluffy socks etc. (current room temperature: 15° - and we won't get into how disgustingly massive the recent leccy bill was )
