Lincolnshire is in a meteorological dither - warm enough for clouds of those mosquito-esque things and yet with occasional half-hearted bursts of rain, sleet, snow and wind before blue sky and weak sun again. Typically disordered.
You can tell that the weather is not run by the military.
I remember having snow one Easter, too. We were at an outdoor sunrise service, shivering our butts off. Forget the Easter finery; everybody was bundled up in heavy clothes and/or wrapped up in blankets.

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!

Isn't that what the Met Office call 'Variable'?

Oh I do so wish that white stuff would go away. Let us hope the equinox brings with it the order of springtime...

ReplyDeleteSorry to hear this! Hopefully this is one of winter's last hurrahs for the year and spring will return for good this time!
ReplyDeleteSame here Cro...flurries yesterday, but then plummeting temperatures making it TOO cold to snow.
ReplyDeleteI fear my Easter bonnet my have to be fur-lined!
last year we had a snow fall in MAY! No, no climate change here.
ReplyDeleteIn scanning down to your previous posts, I beheld a lovely daffodil and early flowers. Now I see your snow covered wellies.
ReplyDeleteI remember a blizzard on April 5, 1973, in Iowa. Flowers blooming one day, and frozen under two feet of snow the next.
Meanwhile, we've had snow constantly on the ground since December, with more coming this Tuesday. Easter bunny is gonna need snowshoes this year!
