Tuesday 28th March
Well - survived the clocks going forward again. And of course, America is still a week behind us! This is positively the silliest thing and now they are talking about possibly going to double summer time - in other words the coocks would stay where they are now in October and go forward another hour in March next year - bringing us to the same time as the rest of Europe. Long live GMT!
The poor daffodil finally made it out and blossomed and the trees are covered in pretty little white flowers. But it is still coolish (more coolish than is comfortable). But we've had a bit of rain - only a bit - hosepipe bans still in force from April 3.
Today - civil servants are on strike - so that they (unlike the rest of us) will be able to retire at 60 (8 years ahead of the rest of the population). France on strike - who's next.
Bit of a rant today - but what the hell.
Have a great week.
