It is spring at last. This week has been the first one where I notice a glimmer of light in the sky when I struggle out of bed just after 6am. As I write this on the train [at 7.20am], there is a gorgeous red sky and the ground is covered in snow – even the Burren hills across Galway Bay were powdered with white. On mornings like this, I really wish I was out with my camera instead of heading to the office.
