We see th' appearing buds
23 March 2013 (527)

Upper Tysoe, Warwickshire

Apologies to all for having disappeared off the face of the planet --
and therefore not posting or commenting as per usual -- but, after a practice
run of man flu, the real thing struck, about a week ago, and I've been laid up in bed.
I'll probably not get back to posting or commenting regularly for a few more days:
but here's a tulip to remind myself that spring has supposedly sprung --
even though the snow is piling down, outside, once again.

Hope you are feeling better soon. Your pretty close-up of the tulip is a treat to look at. Despite all the cold and snow, I see the tulips and daffodils are coming out. V

Man flu is very prevalent when its cold and murky. And when its hot and sticky!

Nice tulip to remind us of what should be there ;-)

That's my tulip :-) Lovely use of DOF. Hope the flu, and the snow, disappears soon.

Wonderful picture, hope you get better soon, the wife seems to have 'man flu' and is incapable of doing anything! It may be an excuse....

My sympathy. Woman just don't understand how we suffer with man flu.
