(The Spokesman-Review)
Earlier today, Marmitetoasty e-mailed this swell note with her hopes that "spring will soon be there for you doodles and all me Dingleberry maties." She said: "JBelle tells me she is still snowed under. ... We here in Southern England have just have the most glorious warm spring week, which is quite apt as its officially the first day of spring here today. ... Its been warm enough to do me garden in just a t-shirt and for nippers not to have to wear coats during the day. ... Daffodils and crocuses are all in bloom and the cherry blossoms on the way to my Jacobs school are a beautiful sight. ... See, to prove it, here attached is a photo taken today of one of me poo buckets that sits out the front of me house.
