It'll be interesting to compare progress with earlier years ... http://www.gardenersworld.com/search/
however, conclusions shouldn't be drawn from such an unscientific sample
Our first pair of swallows arrived yesterday 9th April. They were catching plenty of insects and were going in and out of a old shed.
Noticed the first ones here in Central Scotland on Tuesday. Been out in the garden this last few of days and notice there are a few more arriving each day.
Saw my first swallows today whilst out with my friend at a GC. Magical moment!
Everything crossed here
Saw our first swallow on Friday 7th April, in Carmarthenshire.
Can't wait for the House Martins and Swifts to follow!

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
