It's impossible to pin down but both of us feel there's a very slight
'softening' in the air today. It's still terribly cold (3C) but
somehow, there's a feel of change. It may be because the sky has risen
by a few feet and we can actually see other colours than monotone grey
in all directions!

I put some washing out today for the first time this year and got most
of it fairly dry, apart from towels. No tumble drier so fresh air
beats having it hanging around indoors. There was quite a good breeze
blowing,but still pretty cold.
