Things that PC could do in 3.5 hours
3.5 hours is enough time to read 80% of The Hobbit.
Coincidentally, The Hobbit is a tale about a bewildered halfling completely out of his element going on a journey.

Well actually I'm not but that's another point, I'm off in the tropics spending the kids' inheritance, but don't tell PurpleGorilla.
When does spring start? - Met Office
Meteorological spring will begin on 01 March 2016 and ends on 31 May 2016.
The meteorological seasons consists of splitting the seasons into four periods made up of three months each. These seasons are split to coincide with our Gregorian calendar making it easier for meteorological observing and forecasting to compare seasonal and monthly statistics. By the meteorological calendar, spring starts on 1 March.
The seasons are defined as Spring (March, April, May), Summer (June, July, August), Autumn (September, October, November) and Winter (December, January, February).

Funny thing. The Swiss railway network was built by British engineers (which is why the trains travel on the left, rather than the right). But somehow they manage to work quite well in winter. One April, we had a couple of feet of snow overnight, and the while there were a few delays and cancellations, there was no mass disruption.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostThere is no definite definition of the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. You are proposing an astronomical split.
When does spring start? - Met Office
Both are correct. I prefer the Meterological system, since the start of a season is the same each year.
