Crocus

Crocus

I visited our daughter this morning just for coffee and a catch up as it is two weeks since I had seen her, but we do speak on the telephone most days.

On my return home to complete my work for this week I noticed these yellow Crocus had opened in the sunshine, so I took a picture with my iPhone. They are my picture today even though I am not fond of yellow flowers and always find them difficult to photograph.

Work completed, the weekend is here, will there be snow here? I hope so.

At last the Crocus shoots have come through the ground, but so far only the mauve and purple ones are visible.

I did some housework and used my steam cleaner for the first time although I am not sure it was any more effective than my squeeze mop and a bucket of water.

After the overnight rain, the sun has been shining all day, much to the delight of a certain cat who has been outside most of the day; even Florence has even ventured out. It is still quite windy and not as warm outside as the sun suggests. It reached seven degrees Celsius around lunchtime, in my part of the United Kingdom, but it is gradually getting colder again; a sharp frost tonight I suspect.
