Spring is not sprung!

As Britain waits tonight with baited breath for the coming storm,I wait for the global warming cultists to chime in with their tales of doom and gloom.If we have any weather ..it's global warming that is to blame...did we never have weather before?..can't they remember?...I'm pretty sure we did.Here over the water, this time of year is one of counting down the days till whatever excuse for a summer we will have appears.Spring and summer nowadays just seem to be bit of a blur...something to do with the maritime influence on the Wirral I presume. I'm waiting for Vinogirl to contact me and let me know how early spring is shaping up in Napa..the mustard was just blooming before I left and I'm sure the valley is really coming alive now...oh well...four months till I return.Until then I will have to make do with the fact that sometimes when the right conditions coincide, an early spring/summer morning in England is unbeatable...roll on spring....but for now..time to batten down the hatches.

gawd, Napa is beautiful all the time, innit?

At least you get some consistently dreary weather, which I crave. I get sick of the sunshine - way too much of it down here.
