Here, for example, for quite a few years you could hear many complain about that "the winters aren't anymore what they used to be", and now it's snowing and frosty for more than five weeks the same people are "fed up with this chaos".Sean Jeatinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978285783271305489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-41751766509679885862010-02-01T15:35:58.716+01:002010-02-01T15:35:58.716+01:00That's a lovely quote, and a good match for yo...That's a lovely quote, and a good match for your photos. Though the snowfall in Ireland was modest by comparison, there was a curious sense of relief when the rain finally fell, and fell heavily, since it announced the beginning of a much-awaited thaw. Few of us make natural hermits!Stanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03386875624025404452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-64663018118480124412010-02-01T14:44:32.261+01:002010-02-01T14:44:32.261+01:00Nevin,

Snow, snow, snow.<br />Actually, it seems <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Till_Eulenspiegel" rel="nofollow">Till Eulenspiegel</a> was among my ancestors, as sometimes I would like him whistle gayly when walk up a steep hill, and looking gloomy when walking downhills, because when walking uphill I know sooner or later it will go downhill again, and when walking downhill for sure soon it will go uphill. :)<br /><br /><b>Claudia</b>,<br />ah yes, I do also keep my fingers crossed that the immortal bard will soon enjoy spring and all those flowers and flowerlike girls. :)<br />As for the shovelling. Right now another 20 centimetres snow are falling. So guess what I shall - nolens volens - soon be doing. :)Sean Jeatinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978285783271305489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-20265301142750864602010-02-01T08:18:29.581+01:002010-02-01T08:18:29.581+01:00As always beautifully written.

And illustrating so well, Dafydd's poignant alienation.<br /><br />Hope you're not shovelling days and nights, Sean. It will melt, y' know...:)))Claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307495672130972111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-30716784068793784132010-02-01T03:15:54.531+01:002010-02-01T03:15:54.531+01:00There is a sense of sadness I am feeling in your f...There is a sense of sadness I am feeling in your few posts lately.... Is it my imagination or are you feeling a little blue my dear friend?<br /><br />Both the photos and the words of the "poet" are beautiful in a sad kind of way....<br /><br />It could also mean I am feeling blue and conceiving your very upbeat post totally wrong... there is always that!!!
