Spring is on the way

The magnolias are starting to come out which is a sure sign Spring is on the way.   I need to go back and check when it flowered last year as I think I blipped it.  It seems a bit early to me.  Mind you one of the clivias is also flowering.

It was new fridge buying this morning then lunch and cards.   It has been blowing a hoolie today and things have been blown all over the place.  Same again for tomorrow it seems.   Hopefully it will blow itself out by the end of the day.
