Spring is here?

Sunny afternoon in the Outer Hebrides, even though it is not very warm. Mercury is firmly stuck on 9C / 48F once again, although the sun does help to take the edge off it. Took an amble earlier on to Sandwick Cemetery, a 20 minute walk from here, to take photographs of some World War II gravestones. A WWI stone that I had pictured before was now untraceable. Looked up and down both the Old and New cemeteries, without result. Anyway, as I said, it was a nice afternoon so I didn't really mind.

    We are about the same here. Just 4 degress warmer but the sun does take the edge off. It's been nice 3 days in a row and such a relief from the bitter cold we'd had. The pictures a beautiful.
