The days are so much longer and there are signs of Spring everywhere - lambs at the next farm, hares in the fields, early blossom and flowers. It is beginning to warm up and won't be long until Easter. There is an interesting Spring Festival happening over Easter near Aldeburgh - the Alde Valley Spring Festival with the theme this year 'Food, Gardens and the Land' www.aldevalleyspringfestival.co.uk The boats will soon be back at Mersea Island as the sailing season will be starting next month.
