Welcome to the round up of posts you might have missed this week on Smorgasbord.
Whilst we might not be quite into spring yet, there has been the bonus of a few more extras hours of daylight which helps boost the spirits. We have even had the odd half hour of sunshine but I don’t want to jinx it by getting over excited.
In the meantime here is a little calypso music and some of the animals at Battersea Park children’s zoo eager to get out into the sunshine.
My thanks as always to the amazing contributors for their posts and support.
