Sprung
Ok people. Its April 1st - and London has turned on a 10 p piece. Grey winter is falling behind and spring is welling up all over the place.
Last night I was in Covent Garden at 7pm and the last of the sunlight had not yet faded. People were laughing, discussing dinner plans and enjoying the pulse of the city.
London is at last coming out from under its grey winter doona because suddenly the weather has turned and the days are long again. Summer is coming - hooray.
I have survived my first London winter, and all is right with the world.
