The Spring Fling

Golly ain’t it lovely now that Spring appears to FINALLY be here?!

I quite literally have a Spring in my step and want to see fields of daffodils so I can go crazy and run amok in the sunshine. I do feel sorry for all you hayfever sufferers tho.

Spring is my favourite season. The happy season between the grey gloomy winter and the hot hazy summer. Spring means you can ditch the clingy tights and woolly jumpers, break out the fake tan, and don the pretty skirts. Crumbs, it’s choice.

Some people go insanely mental when they think Winter is OVER. The short-shorts, oversized sunglasses, jandals and tank tops appear, accessorised by goose-pimples and a sort of hunched over look from being cold, but those people don’t care. They don’t care cos it’s practically summer, and time to bare their skin, gawd-damnit!

I’ve noticed a bit of Spring loving in the air too. Couples seem to have come out of the wood work, away from their couch snuggling to full PDA right in the middle of the street. Lovely. (Give me a month and I’ll be over it, wishing them away to a dark cupboard somewhere).

The gym also appears to be getting a sudden rush of people freaking out about having to expose their bodies, literally falling over each other on the mad dash scramble to the treadmill, cursing those ‘Please limit your time to 15minutes during peak hour’ signs.

Ah yes, Spring is grand. Here’s to more good weather please.

See ya
