Not the end of winter

And so winter goes on and on. The poor daffodils waited so long before they put in an appearance, were then buffeted by the wind and rain, regretted coming into flower with the freezing temperatures, and finally humiliated by the snow of last night.

The temperature today and tomorrow will hardly get above 0C, colder than anytime in December. Oh for the dizzy heights of 11C of early January. When will Spring arrive? The jobs in the garden are mounting up, it will probably be April before any of them get done.
