Spring is finally in the air!

Yes, it's true. The last of the snow is melting away, the temperature has climbed into double figures once or twice (let's not get ahead of ourselves now...!) and it's EVEN been sunny for the past few days, unbelievable!

Well, it's amazing how much I took the sun for granted in Scotland, ok, yes I know, it doesn't even come out that much there but definitely more frequently than it does here in Finland. So, now I'm greatly appreciating every waking minute we have with sunshine...that's my tribute to the sun. we love you.

Of course the clocks also went forward at the weekend and now it's light until about 20.30, herrlich! It was really odd coming out of training when it was just dusky and not pitch black. I'll see how I feel in the middle of summer when there's only 2-3 hours of darkness, no doubt i'll be complaining in the other direction!

Well, I'm just about to go out for a nice evening walk and chat with Piia, then back here for some hot chocolate and biscuits ;) it's all good.

Ultimately I'm reeeeaaaaally excited about the weekend because that's when the Caley guys will be over here to fight the Tampere fighters from Chitalada club (where i train here) and the show is on here in Hervanta! woo hoo! can't wait :D
