First day of Spring....

[Pale Rider]

What is far more important is the seasons are lower case - that's a little letter for the non-grammarians among you.

Days of the week and months are upper case.

Wow, the sun is shining on the costa del Clyde today, but I don't expect it to last .

 

[Ming the Merciless]

That's nothing. I've just done 312 miles in 24 hours





(Over 4 weeks)

Was the handbrake on?

 

[raleighnut]

Well at least we're getting closer.

Spring this year will be 20 March, 9.37am (GMT) (approx.)

Yep, the day after my birthday.

 

[The Crofted Crest]

Yep, the day after my birthday.

Just in case I forget closer to the date, have a good one.

Was the handbrake on?

It was uphill all the way, into a headwind, on an MTB, and the battery was flat.

Are you calling yourself sensible, Fabbers?

Remind me who has just agreed to cycle 300 miles in 24 hrs?

That's a good challenge but do able

I'm hoping for a "shepherd's delight" tomorrow, might even get the bike out .

Ah, red sky at night, shepherd’s delight. Red sky in the morning, shepherd’s house is on fire

I'm not keen on cycling at night so I'll just have to settle for a bit of afternoon delight

The first day of Spring is always before the last day of Winter.

Yesterday spring and today Winter

Agreed, why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?

I believe some definitions of Spring have it starting on the Spring equinox on 21 March.

Funny. I started a very similar post a year ago today where a minor equinox vs meteorological debates occurred!

1, Mother Nature dictates when Spring starts.

2, The first day of Spring is always before the last day of Winter.

And don't forget March comes in like a lamb, goes out like a lion.

I go by sea temperature in Cornwall. July, August and September are most definitely The Summer.
