Easter is getting closer, religious-themed drama starting to appear on TV and the weather seems certain to turn wintry by the weekend. All is normal then.
This card was sent from Canada in 1913, signed "from your litle friend Alfie". Cute. And a One Cent George V Canada stamp, which seems a bargain.
We've got a Continental Market again down at the harbour in Ramsgate this Easter (gales and storms permitting), combined with A Wee Taste of Scotland. Planned to run from Friday to Monday, there should be plenty of stalls selling German sausages, French tartiflette, Scottish potato and meat stuff (I forget what it's called, but I had some last year and it was yum) and much more. Fingers firmly crossed that the Thanet microclimate wakes up and does its stuff...

What a lovely card. And I haven't heard it called 'Eastertide' for a very long time, if ever.
Well I suppose it goes with Yuletide. I've never heard Autumntide, Wintertide or others either (apart from sailing folk and their spring and summer tides, obviously!).
