Default Since the rains came back

Well the rains came back with a vengance here in coastal South
Wales.we have now just passed the 5 inches of the stuff, and as you
would expect it has seen the return of the mud, but it has also
brought Spring in with a vengance,
The last week has seen Forsythia going from bud to full bloom, the
dafs reaching up to try to catch the rain first and hawthorn is now
starting to show green shoots. The roses rambeling up throughh the
hawthorn hedges are shooting away. The birds are singing their little
heds off in the early morning and the pond has filled with spawn.
What a differance a week makes.
