The aroma of the wattle was overpowering this morning. It seems early, but no doubt the IPCC cabal have altered the world's atomic clocks to slow down so that it appears that spring is coming earlier every year.

J.R.R. Tolkien: The Fall of Arthur
This book is recommended by Thygocanberra. I have a copy and will read with interest.
J.R.R. Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings
What can I say. My favourite book. I think I have at least four different editions.
R. G. Grant: Battle: A Visual Journey Through 5,000 Years of Combat
This is the dream book for wargamers. Literally hundreds of battles. Over 350 pages of full colour illustrations. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
John Gibson Warry: Warfare in the Classical World: An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Weapons, Warriors, and Warfare in the Ancient Civilizations of Greece and Rome
We all have a wonderful book with fantastic illustrations, that amazed us in childhood, and followed us to our grown up bookshelf. This is one of those books. (*****)
Antony Beevor: Stalingrad: The Fateful Siege: 1942-1943
In school we were taught such an English view of World War II. Now I have discovered the epic battles on the Eastern Front, truly gargantuan conflicts. This book is a great introduction to the Eastern Front and a brilliant history book. (*****)
This post is called bait.
And I will not bite, because the economic crash will push the climate change nonsense off the map.

And an impressive blossom too!

Indeed, spring is sprung here in the grand duchy. At least one of our plum trees has decided the time has come.
but I think August is not too early - we should all be worried if it happens in July.
And if memory serves, the changing day length is the critical factor not the temperature (woops seems I have given Paul an argument)
