De grass is riz.
De Boid is on de Wing.
But dat's absoid.
I always t'ought de Wing was on de Boid.
Spring! April showers take us from Winter to Summer in less time than it takes to say so.
New lambs are gambolling round their mothers in the green.
The swallows are returning.
Though not many of either, admittedly, in Central London.
So I'm guessing.
Spring!
Renewal.
Fresh Growth.
Resurrection, even.
Now surely is the time for the Winter of my Discontent to pass.

Hi Patrick, the boys are intrigued by their first trip outside Europe and us (Joseph in a rage: there's just random people everywhere and random things on the floor). We travelled overnight to Cairo on the sleeper- like sleeping on a roller coaster. Our Luxor fat has views to the valley of the kings over a bans plantation, it's searing hot and dusty. All thinking of you much love Zoe xx
ReplyDeleteGreat messages, boys!
ReplyDeleteAnd Zoe!

Seems Spring is pogo-sticking between Rome and London. Arrived here in early March but departed at Easter - tho the swallows and martins have stayed. Had to get my winter clothes out again and light the fire! Sadly, I think we ate all the lambs at Easter too. Don't tell David Attenborough.
