Also had to google the plural of Iris after typing narcissi and doubting irises, irisi? Me having having a moment over grammar or spelling definitely isn't a newt though!

Sharkie Feb 2021 9:45am, 26 Feb 2021 17,445 posts	0 Sharkie Look at it this way you Northern Newtjinglers: you now have a real advantage in 'firsts' spotting. There is a big difference between what's in bloom on the south coast and what the likes of halfpint up in the Highlands see at various times of year. (I mean OBVS there is!) No contest in gorgeousness as hafpint's photos always demonstrate.

halfpint Feb 2021 10:22am, 26 Feb 2021 34,258 posts	0 halfpint We are definitely a bit later for spring blooming up here. I’ve felt a bit gloomy the last couple of days and therefore lacking in newts. Today I decided to take my morning tea break outside which is a first. This is at the end of my street.

The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
