Spring...finally

A quick break from reviewing my Ph.D. thesis prior to my viva next Thursday, primarily induced by the 'shouting' outside the window from a handful of children playing in Evelyn Gardens.  Children happily running around in the sun.

Yes, the sun.  Finally, it is warm: 17 degrees by day, 10 degrees at night.  The first 2 digit temperatures in the last 3?  Maybe 4 months?  An unbelievably long winter seems to be coming to an end.

In the same way that this 'mission' I started back in 2009 is (hopefully) coming to an end.  But that is another story...
