Been around that here for a week or so. Nearly everything is blooming now, some trees just waking up.   :bowler:

Got delayed on my way home a couple of evenings ago by something obstructing a back road, it was a swan, probably missed the lakes on both sides and landed in the lane instead.

Luckily there was a nice lady from the RSPCA to pick it up put it somewhere safer.  :bowler:

Last year a swan decided to build a nest on a road near where I live. They closed down a lane and put fences around the nest  :)

There's going to be a big thunderstorm this evening, which will keep me from walking home as planned. I don't have a view of the sky from my office window, but I see sunlight filtering through the trees--it's so strange to this Californian that a thunderstorm could start within a half hour.

Landed in Faro, there was a bike assembly station at the airport, it's a clear blue sky and about 20C.

I'm quite pleased.

Cycled to Salisbury and back this evening, first time in 5-6 months.  :blush:

Just nice to be out and about in the English countryside for 3 or 4 hours, taking in Spring and not having to bother about getting home early due to the cold and darkness.  :bowler:

20°C? For the Al-Gharb natives, that's still winter.  :P

Did a 12 mile hike in the Peak District today. 

Everything hurts.

It was mostly this hike, with some variations:
