Overcast but fairly bright afternoon, with the highest temperatures we've seen in two weeks: +9C. Elsewhere in the country, the mercury will reach the dizzying heights of 11C. That will send the snow melting in no time at all.

Miep Gies, the Amsterdam woman who helped to hide Anne Frank during the Second World War, is celebrating her 100th birthday today. She is displaying modesty about her role in helping the persecuted Jews, saying others did far more. Anne Frank kept a diary, which Mrs Gies hid after the girl and her family had been taken to a concentration camp. Anne died there in 1945; her father published her diary in 1947.
Hi Guido, At last I can report that here the weather has brightened up somehwhat as well just glanced out and think most of the snow has gone now from the top fields
ReplyDeleteCould spring be on it's way...Wishful thinking maybe !!
Love Sybil xx
Although it is not bitter cold here today we had a nice white fluffly snow come down this morning. Parts of it has melted this afternoon. It was only a little bit so we perservere and keep hopeful that Spring is just around the corner. Yet we still need to finish February and much of March before that will happen. Anne Frank of course is a familiar name to us all. Her uplifting diary can be a good example to us all. 'On Ya'-ma
ReplyDeleteAnne Franks Diary is one of the most endearing pieces that ever came out of that war. She did more than she'll ever know. (Hugs)Indigo
