I have decided that February is my least favourite month. It isn’t so much that it is winter but more that, here in Devon at least, it is so grey.
There is good news though;
For a start, March is very nearly upon us. Obviously, in March, the only colours that are allowed are yellow and green. Grey is banished and all clouds are white and fluffy with the occasional hint of silver.
Moreover (I think a Blonde discovered that word so I shall say it again). Moreover, this February, I have managed to spend quite a lot of time doing outside things. Bivvying, Ten Torsing, Dartmoor Rescuing, Welsh Mountaining; all activities that can help to drive the grey out of your head.
February can be dreary (which is probably why they made it the shortest month) but I think I am safe in saying that it is brightening up!
Until you look at the forecast for the last day of February and it’s looking decidedly un bright!!!! Hopefully it’s just Feb saying goodbye and March will be delightful!!! X
Of course March will be delightful. Just like today 😉
Hee! I’ve been welcoming grey ( with a few darker spots in it) all week – on the 24th, bang on target, the first four patches of bee-oo-ti-ful frogspawn arrived in my pond and yesterday, when I crept out early to listen to the morning croaking, there were 7 – yes, 7 – very busy frogs swarming all over it!

If I were in charge the whole country would go into hibernation at the end of January and not wake until March 1st. February is vile.
That sounds very pleasant indeed – shame you didn’t win on Thursday 😉
