Spring can still make us smile

We’ve decided to do our best at Pembrokeshire.Online to find ways to look on the brighter side at a time when so much of the news is dark…

For instance, it can be easy not to notice that the winter is over and spring is with us once more…

Daffodils – which of course mean that much more in Wales – have been bursting into glorious yellow swathes. And trees are alive with stunning blossoms, sometimes even beneath a sky of sun-filled blue.

The bird are in fine voice as warmth returns to the land and green leaves begin to reappear.

The resilience and overwhelming beauty of nature is all around us – especially in Pembrokeshire – and it serves as a timely reminder that life is so much more than just us and our often transitory problems.

If you have found reasons to be cheerful in the current climate, do write to us and tell us about them. Email: speaktofish@gmail.com
