    Have some snowdrops peeping through but was amazed to visit Sussex at the end of December and see daffodils in full flower in somebody's front garden.

    Yep - ours have been in flower since mid-November and we've had carpets of snowdrops for the past 2-3 weeks.

    I think I caught a glimpse of primroses in flower last week, but I was driving and didn't get a good look. Seems possible, though.
    Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac ;)

    Having just read through this thread, I was reminded of a photo I saw late last year, of a field of daffodils in flower, on an island off Cornwall, St Mary's to be precise. I've just searched and found it. The pic was shown on Sat Nov 3rd and if I can, I'll try to reproduce it.

    Sorry, no I don't know how to do it.

    I've had a think about this, and may have it now.

    For anyone that would like to submit a photo, I do it this way. I've got photobucket on my system, it's easy to download. When you have this, all your pics are available within it, so it's a simple case of copying the url and inserting it on any forum. That's if you can remember lol.
