You have to cherish them don't you; those moments of happiness? This is truly nothing great or life changing and , to be frank, you need to be a dog owner to get this or enjoy a few daffodils and crocuses.
I have previously mentioned the village green. Well, part of my day is taken up with taking my dog for a walk. Here in England, Spring is on its way and on the 20th we are officially there as we are into the new season.
So, at around 8.30am - 9.30am ish each day I take my dog for a walk (for me) and a run (for her). We go down into Green Lane where the trees are bursting into bud and the flowering cherries are way ahead and you can see the clouds of pink clusters from afar; then we are onto the Green where my dog takes a run. As I walked on ahead, I turned to watch her: the sun was shining and bombing towards me, tail high, ears back, tongue out and happy as a dog should be, was my dog. And at that moment - you can't help but smile and feel happy.
And the daffodils and crocuses? On the way back, I pass the house called Rosegarten and to make us all feel that nature is saying Good Morning, the folk there have planted an ever growing circle of daffs around their tree in the front lawn and crocuses on the other side of the lawn. As I say, it's not much, but it is a cracking good start to the day.

Zebra Crossing Issues
Why is it that every time I use the crossing at the Wagon and Horses there is always a car that ignores the fact that i'm standing there and drives straight through - this is even after it has had ample time to stop so the excuse of being unable to brake is rubbish. The excuse of they couldn't see me is also rubbish as i'm not waif like in appearance. On many an occassion i've had cars drive across while i've been in the crossing!!!!! One particular idiot actually accelerated through while I was crossing to get over in his lane before I reached it. It is particularly annoying when waiting there with children because heaven knows when one of them are going to be run over but these idiots.
