Bonjour ππ₯°.
Dictons :
Des fleurs que mars verra, peu de fruits on mangera.
Si Saint-Vivien est gelΓ©, quarante jours le jardinier aura froid aux pieds.
Pluie de mars grandit l'herbette, et souvent annonce disette.
S'il gèle au jour des quarante martyrs, il gèlera encore quarante jours au pire.
GuMo da drauΓen, in Hamburg wird es schΓΆn π
Hicks is snuggled on the brown leather sofa, with an orange throw blanket and his monkey. Heβll sleep all day after his kennel adventure yesterday.
Hicks is exhausted from his adventures away yesterday, and weβre both sore from our inky ones.
I see sausage sammiches and napping in all our futures today.
Relax and reset.
