The day began early today as I was in Bangor to review the morning papers on the Radio Wales breakfast show. Happily I was back in time for Max the dog's morning stroll on the beach, which was made all the better by a lovely warm breeze. It really feels like spring is round the corner.
Mind you, I thought the same exactly a year ago, then we had one of the biggest snowfalls North Wales has seen in a decade.
But it has been balmy (if not barmy) of late and I even dragged my behind onto my bike for a pedal along the new-ish cycle path from Deganwy to West Shore last weekend.
A word of advice - don't take a shiny racer with super thin tyres along here. The path is in a dreadful state - covered in stones in one section, with sand in others. And parts of the bank up to the golf course look close to collapse, so if someone shouts "four" it might not be a golfball, but a golfer, about to land on your head.
