Happy Spring!
Well, this a.m., around seven of the clock I believe, Spring arrived And like thousands of Canadians, I celebrated by shovelling snow out of my driveway And the next little while don't look too good either:
Canadians brace for a cold spring coast to coast - Canada - CBC News
Anyone celebrating spring? Any volunteers to help with the shovelling?

If you pay my air fare I will gladly shovel your snow. I fancy a break in Canada.

Re: Happy Spring!
I am thankful for the delay of spring, because the silver birch trees near my flat aren't producing pollen yet.
I have been waiting three weeks for delivery of a herbal remedy against pollen allergies.
Customs and excise and Royal Mail have caused the delay whilst they decided to slap a £11.65 fee on 60 capsules costing £22.52.
The herb is one that can no longer be sold in EU - bought from California.

Would it not save server space if you just told us what you aren't allergic to rather than your continual gripes about how your suspicious parcels are always delayed?

I'm so grateful that the dark nights and dull days are slowly getting brighter!
