and also wilder flowers. Not much else apart from the stupid mahonia
which seems to flower all winter nowadays. Buds are swelling on the
trees, azaleas and rhodos and, given some dry sunny weather; Spring is
not far away. Looking forward to it TBH.
So am I.
The last time I lay in the hammock and got some hot sun on my ol' creaking
bones was early October. That's been nearly 5 months, no wonder my skin is
all pale and pasty.
Well I'm still quite tanned Nick! Then again I don't mind going out in the
wind/rain/snow/frost /fog it all helps to keep the dartmoor glow, or is that
the effects of radon LOL :-)
The UV & sun strength should start shooting up once we get into March.
Could even get a UV Index of 5 by the end of the next month.
Last Sunday was pretty sunny. OK wind chill -5C, but the sun was still
strong up at 1500 feet.
