Wow bluebells out already, in Staffordshire the leaves/shoots are coming up but there is no sign at all of the main flower shoot. Our daffodills only startedfully flowing about a fortnight ago and are now reaching their full bloom.

I never would have imagined that spring could be so different across such a small distance.
