The clocks changed last night and I forgot, so I was very surprised to see that my laptop had a different time from my wall clock. Took a few moment's for my head to realise what had happened!
Consequently, it's lighter later and we've had one of the first days of sunshine this year. I'm hoping that the summer will compensate for the horrid winter, and be hot and sunny.

We have a Suffolk and a Norfolk nearby. You can always tell the out of towers in Tidewater. They always pronounce the "-folk" part of the word as "folk". But we locals know the correct pronunciation of the words and pronounce them just as you Brits do.
...is "folk" pronounced like a certain four-letter word beginning with "f"?

Is Tidewater's Tower modelled on London's? If so how do folks get out, through a traitors gate no doubt

It's officially spring! Why, you ask? Sunshine? Temps in the 70's F? Balmy breezes?

No - I got my first spider bite of 2018!

Yep. And then you will feel all those wiggly legs trying to climb back up your esophagus unless you chew them down really well. Yum yum!😁
