Seasons Greetings??


Pauline was out delivering meals on wheels on Monday and what did she see?
A single Daffodil poking its head out of the ground.
Is it a sign of global warming we ask?
To Everything There Is a Season-
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
To everything there is a season,
a time for every purpose under the sun.
A time to be born and a time to die;
a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
a time to kill and a time to heal ...
a time to weep and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn and a time to dance ...
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to lose and a time to seek;
a time to rend and a time to sew;
a time to keep silent and a time to speak;
a time to love and a time to hate;
a time for war and a time for peace

Daffodil to bloom for Christmas?
Will Hemel daffodils bloom in winter, like this one pictured in spring?




A Hemeltoday reader emailed us today to say she had spotted a daffodil about to bloom in Hemel Hempstead.
Pauline Bowles wonders whether it's "global warming/warning?"She told us: "Yesterday my friend and I were delivering meals on wheels at Evelyn Sharpe House, Field Road, Adeyfield. "By the parking bays to the left of the main entrance we were amazed to see a daffodil just about to open. "Could this be some sort of record for an outdoor bulb that usually flowers in March?" Have you seen a spring flower? Do tell us and send us a picture if you can.
