No more pretty buildings today, but these photos were taken last Tuesday in St.James's Park at around sunset.
Stupid flowers … don't they know it's February?

For those of you labouring under snow in the Colonies: WHY?
The Mother Country is nice and springy.

Today I'm working from home but I've got to mow my sodding lawns.
There are daisies all over them!

Tomorrow, by the way, I may well post that God-awful photo of me in a ponytail.
So be warned!
Dig around in your own cringe-box and scan in your own "worst hair ever" photographs.
Tomorrow will be "Bad Hair Day".

This colony must not have recieved the weather update hun.
Its summer, its so hot your stick together when you sleep with someone.
Hee hee, Kate.
I don't regard you as the Colonies, but as a strange and wonderful place full of deadly spiders, bushfires and the weirder parts of my family who ran away there in the sixties.
I'm a child of the frozen north. The weather we have here today (high fifties Fahrenheit, sunshine and a cool breeze) is perfect for me. Especially as I've got to get out there and mow the lawns.
Enjoy your sticky heat.
he he I'll be here for that!
These floral photos are delightful, Dive. It's very windy here today so any flowers here are being blown about horribly. There are all early it's true.
I should do my lawn too. Maybe tomorrow...
Daffodils?! I LOVE daffodils?! I've got snow.
And thanks for the "bad hair day" warning. I'll see what I can find.
Lynn: You're just hoping for rain so you can put it off! Hee hee.
I've done mine now and washed the car. It's lovely out there, if a little breezy.
Robyn: Brrrr … Snow is nice for one or two days a year but after that it can get pretty damned annoying.
As for the hair?
Mullets, perms, back-combing disasters; all are welcome!
This means ALL OF YOU!
Oh gawd.
re: lawn, actually believe it or not, it's still all squidgy underfoot, really squelchy Dive since the floods. Although it's all gone now, eight feet of lake water just twenty feet from my back garden at that time has seeped horribly underground. A few more good days of sun - though yesterday it poured - and i should be able to weild the mower without sinking lol!
Yea, nice guy,rub it in! We are expecting another 8-12" of snow tonight into tomorrow. I think spring may just give up.
Lynn: You are excused mowing until your lawn has dried out and recovered. If anyone complains I'll write you a note.
Prudence: Hee hee hee hee hee!
Having said that, when snow is as spectacular and beautiful as it is in your neck of the woods I can excuse it.
In Adelaide we're a little short on precipitation at this time of year so we don't stick together in the dry warmth. Our days are beautiful in (nearly) autumn. The acorns are falling and all is well with our world except for my hair - M.B will tell you that every day is a bad hair day for me - he liked it when it was about 2" long, not a mass of shoulder length unwieldy blonde.
Lovely photos BTW, Dive.
I think shoulder-length unwieldy blonde hair sounds divine, Mme!
Ok Dive, i've done it and you haven't yet. Don't you DARE back out on me!
Did you know there's a city called Soddy Daisy in Tennessee? (http://soddydaisy.org) I came across the name once and it's been taking up precious gray-matter ever since.
By the way, my store-bought hair has pretty much eliminated the scourge of bad hair days.
So that's what flowers look like...it's been so long here, I'd nearly forgotten.
We had a beautiful snow this morning, though. I wished I'd had my camera with me on my way to work, I would have shown you. I was working on a college campus today, though...best not to take cameras, etc. as they have a way of walking out of your bag.
Hahaha, leave the flowers alone, Dive. I will hurry back tomorrow to see your ponytail. :)
It's 2 days before my favourite month! So I am loving the flowers.
Looking forward to that ponytail.

Mme: Your hair looks gorgeous.
Lynn: I've posted it at last.
Sorry; I've been working since six and I didn't really have time to blog until I'd got some stuff emailed out.
Lulu: "Soddy Daisy" Hee hee hee.
And your hair looks great, but you must have had a tragic cut some time in your life. C'mon … admit it.
T: Snow is pretty but more than a couple of days a year it becomes a real pain in the ass.
Roll on Spring.
Alice: The ponytail is now there for all to mock.
Joy: Spring's definitely coming! Woohoo!
And here I sit with my seed catalogs in my lap looking at the remains of the ice storm from yesterday....
Not bitter, though. Not me.
At least you don't have to mow the lawns yet!
