Is this the 8th April 2013 or 8th January?

 This is the view from our bedroom window on 8th April.  What a late spring!

This is the view from the Orchard looking out to Clee Hill, which is still snow capped after 2 weeks since it snowed very heavy up there.

This is my spring garden which should have aquilegeas and cassimas flowering by now.   Well at least something!
