    Sounds about right to me.

    I start spring activities in March and carry them on into April and May. Spring oficially starts on 21st March.

    You're not the only one who's confused!

    I think the first day of Spring was 22nd March (or somewhere round there) but then this Sunday the clock's go forward for British Summertime

    I am doing Spring crafts after Easter too!

    The first day of Spring is traditionally 21st March but for meteorological purposes it starts on 1st March so that they can compare statistics more easily.
    I'm not paranoid - the world IS out to get me!

    It depends

    The Spring term is Jan-Easter.
    Spring months to me (& the Met Office) are March, April, May. (Summer June, July, August, Autumn Sept, October, November, Winter December, Jan, Feb)

    Offically i think Spring starts on 21st March but BST as we know is 28th March this year....
