The sun casts long shadows through the bare branches of an oak on to the village green. In the distance some of the older village homes line the edge of the green. To the right, yellow daffodils circle the sign erected to mark the new millennium 25 years ago.

Good morning from our tiny village near London where the sun continues to shine and rainfall is at a bare minimum. Soon that oak tree and the others on our green will be in leaf and the daffodils around the sign will fade.

Daffodils, crocuses and cowslips around the village green today.

A purple Dutch crocus flower with deep orange stamen sits above a newly dug brown soil garden bed.

Spring fliers, including a newly planted yellow narcissus, snowdrops, purple crocus and purple hellebores.

The sun has been out all week in our small corner of south-east England not far south of London and even our north-facing front garden border has got the message that Spring is near.

A couple of days of sunshine has been enough for a bit more colour to be added to the village after the drab days of winter.
