Almond Blossom and living in the Rain Forest

OK so we now have our winter, and for anyone who is experiencing life in North Cyprus the last few days and the rainful may have come as quite a bit of a shock. But lets face it we needed some rain and it has been short comming this year. I was begining to think I would have to start watering the garden months early and being lazy was pleased for the torrential rain we have just had. Lets hope that as it should, (February being one of the wet months)it continues to rain though I dont mind if we dont get the normal hail stones. Yep for anyone doing their 1st year they could be excused for thinking they had moved to the rain forest. But Feb is a short month so spring is on its way I promise and today I saw the 1st almond blossom opening on the trees. Such a pretty site when all the trees are in full blossom.

For anyone who is moaning about the rain, dont worry it wont be too long before you can moan about the heat. We all do during July and August and sometimes even earlier than that.
