Mad March sunshine

The Biddulph town garden was just one of the places to bask in the present unseasonable sunshine. It certainly seems crazy to have a run of days with temperatures in the mid-twenties in, er, March!
It doesn't feel like England at all - we should be miserable and buffeted by sharp winds at this time of year...
Mad March indeed.
