Springtime is i-cumen in

I went down to fetch the paper yesterday morning, and what should I see but … snowdrops, as shown in the featured photo.

Spring, and after that sumer is i-cumen in, as we’ve known since the 13th century at least. Our choir loves to sing about this – and no, the video below is not our band of singers.

And if snowdrops are here, can daffodils be far behind?
