  • How is your day going? Is it as strange as mine I wonder?

  • Right now in England it is supposed to be spring. Normally by now, the yellow daffodils

  • would be out in bloom and many birds should be busily building their nests, or in some

  • cases, rearing their young. But no! None of that is happening here at the moment because

  • here it is still mid-winter. Or at least that is what it looks and feels like. Of course

  • this is not the first time that snow has fallen this late in the year. In the past we have

  • had snow as late as April. However, the odd feeling this unseasonal weather pattern produces

  • is hard to avoid. It's worth noting that not everyone will get this extreme weather. The

  • harshness or severity of the snowfall depends on not just where you are located, but more

  • significantly, how high up you are living. The higher the ground, the colder it gets

  • and quite often that means more snow.

  • This is a very unusual situation, but I suppose strange things happen all the time. Has anything

  • unusual or strange ever happened to you? To be honest, I find the odd quirks of life quite

  • interesting and they certainly draw my attention. So maybe I should not worry too much about

  • the wierd weather conditions. After all, as we say in English...''variety is the spice

  • of life''. This is Misterduncan in England saying wherever you are and whatever the weather

  • is like in your neck of the woods, stay happy and thank you for watching me, teaching you...and

  • of course...a very cold and chilly...ta-ta for now

How is your day going? Is it as strange as mine I wonder?
