It is warming up again- it may be another false alarm, or maybe, just maybe, spring has arrived. Predictably, several phenomena can once more be spotted on our city's streets:
1) People who have overestimated the temperature and gone out without their coats, shivering at traffic lights and rubbing their blue, goose pimpled legs.
2) Van drivers singing along to 80s pop with their windows down.
3) Women cycling in utterly inappropriate shoes. Today's sighting were red leather cutaway kitten heel ankle boots with a leopard print trim. Absurd, but kind of wonderful.
I have very much been falling into category 1 of late; (gasp) I know, who'd have thought it. I've come a long way from the days of wearing about 5 jumpers to ward off The Cold, only to peel all but one off within about ten minutes of my commute :)
