Learning English - SNOWY SPRINGTIME

How is your day going? Is it as strange as mine I wonder?

Right now in England it is supposed to be spring. Normally by now, the yellow daffodils

would be out in bloom and many birds should be busily building their nests, or in some

cases, rearing their young. But no! None of that is happening here at the moment because

here it is still mid-winter. Or at least that is what it looks and feels like. Of course

this is not the first time that snow has fallen this late in the year. In the past we have

had snow as late as April. However, the odd feeling this unseasonal weather pattern produces

is hard to avoid. It's worth noting that not everyone will get this extreme weather. The

harshness or severity of the snowfall depends on not just where you are located, but more

significantly, how high up you are living. The higher the ground, the colder it gets

and quite often that means more snow.

This is a very unusual situation, but I suppose strange things happen all the time. Has anything

unusual or strange ever happened to you? To be honest, I find the odd quirks of life quite

interesting and they certainly draw my attention. So maybe I should not worry too much about

the weird weather conditions. After all, as we say in English...''variety is the spice

of life''. This is Misterduncan in England saying wherever you are and whatever the weather

is like in your neck of the woods, stay happy and thank you for watching me, teaching you...and

of course...a very cold and chilly...ta-ta for now
