Yesterday evening I decided that today I would go for a walk at lunchtime by the River Kelvin and see if there was any hawthorn blossom out on the trees along the river that have been seasonal markers for me for many years. This morning I spotted some on the way into work so thought it was likely that I’d see more today and I have. There are still not many blossoms out but there are a few on an old friend of mine by the river.
Beltane has reached Glasgow’s West End at last, it won’t be long before it reaches the area where I live now but it’s not there yet.
