crocuses 18 March 2010
Has Spring VERY suddenly sprung??? Everywhere I went today crocuses had appeared, and lovely miniature daffodils around some random municipal trees in the Irish capital. Really lovely to see. But not a sausage nor, more to the point, a jonquil at all (at all) in the McLynn garden – strange. Perhaps they’re still on strike after the builders pounding the place to shit last year…for the whole year (and then some…) I’d love them to make their presence felt as yellow flowers are the greatest, particularly after the dark winterness just past.
I’ll be speaking at the Sean Dunne Festival in Waterford on Saturday – a solo breakfast session and later an afternoon gig with some other lovelies…for those of you in the area.
