Those days felt like the threshold of the season. Snow drops were giving way to crocuses on the little green strands of lawn on the way into the business park and visits to my mum’s were soundtracked by the sparrows in the hedges on her block. I love winter but I think spring, lusty spring, is my favourite time of year.
