Signs of Spring!

Well folks,

Some pussy willows are full blown now, and leaf buds getting quite big on a lilac tree I spotted today, so Spring is here ... I think? :

I haven't seen any CMP's and such since arriving here, all the local antique/2nd hand stores I've been to so far have only had ONE HELMET of WW2 so far as militaria goes (except for the war memorial wall, of course, and there is a Legion in town somewhere) ... and I've only spotted one vehicle so far with a Veteran's licence plate ... maybe Spring, once full blown, will bring out the good stuff from winter hibernation?
