Sprung

I think it's safe to say that Spring has sprung in East Anglia. After a great deal of vascillating over the past month (between rain, sleet, snow, hail, and ice), it seems "it" has settled it's mind on Spring. On Friday I noticed an abundance of ladybugs (AKA "ladybirds", AKA "Bishy Bishy Barnabies") on the juniper bushes around the UEA campus, but apart from that it has been generally quite "warm" this week. The sun has been out. A blue sky has been visible. We've been able to walk around without jackets. The daffodils, snowdrops, bluebells, irises and all other manner of "Springtime flowers" are well into their floral splendor. I guess it's now safe to spend time washing the salt-grime off our car and the front windows of our apartment. Anybody have a squeegey?
