Down here on The English Riviera (Brighton), we have Daffs.
It warms the cockles. It must be nearing Springtime!

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!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- 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!
Daffs?? Spring?? You do live in warm climate. Can't see you wearing that thick coat this winter. The Daffs know better

ReplyDeleteThose Church daffs are blooming early. I don't normally see them until around February in our London Parks.
ReplyDeleteUsually we see the Crocus and Snowdrops come up before the daffs.
Goodness! We just got a full foot of snow three days ago,
ReplyDeleteThe Daffs in this particular spot always flower before Christmas. It could just be a particularly warm spot, or perhaps they are a special variety!
ReplyDeleteDaffs in December? ! I used the think late January in Hants was pretty early.
