Is it spring yet?

No, is the answer i think, with more snow coming. The daffs all over the garden are refusing to flower, so I had to fling a pound around in Tesco for these.

In pursuit of some sunshine I’ve just been out to New Cross, where I almost bought a coffee table but got overwhelmed by too much choice, and then visited the new cafe I’ve seen from the bus.

Opposite Goldsmith’s, it’s really cute – probably the least problematic of New Cross’s student cafes. I found a seat at an old school desk and wondered about buying a burger. The blackboard promised it would be “the size of your face.” My face is the size of a plate. As were the burgers I could see being consumed.

    I never thought I’d see the following in print:

    I say this as someone who grew up in Lewisham. The burgers sound incredible.

      Ha ha! Too true. You have to take your sunshine where you can find it in Lewisham x

    May be better to stick to the fish and chips. You’re more likely to get what it says on the tin than with a burger these days!

    The first daffs of spring – always a special moment. Nice vase by the way 🙂
