Smattering of snow here.  Apparently a couple of inches in Swindon.

Great pic of jay.  I used to see one on my plot.  But not survived the Red Kite.  Will not be long before they reach Dorset.   The Jays are really tame in Turkey and queue up along the paths after breakfast would even take it from your hand if it was quiet.

Still some icy snow here from last week, we had about 5-6 inches. It's pretty cold.

Well the sun is out, but, it's really freezing cold. A brass monkey asked if I knew  a good welder.

Absolutely freezing in Cornwall, ground hard and wind icy.  Just spent the afternoon in the greenhouse with seeds and trays and dog lying on the grass in the sun - lovely and warm until the sun moved round. Dog gave up first, now both in with a cup pf tea.

Kinell! That was a rough night. Wheelie bins going off for a wander, fences blown down, gates banging I was even worried about the windows blowing in. Too noisy to sleep properly.

It felt really cold yesterday, grey all day with rain and a sharp wind, got my thermals back out!
Better today, still grey but only a light breeze.

Oh yes, thermals were needed indeed, we had bit of frost on ground this morning! And yesterday strong gusts that blew all my crop protection netting off... :BangHead:...I had to fight the wind and to keep everything in place by doubling the amount of bricks around the covers.
This morning it is much more calmer again...AND it is  :sunny:...that's better :icon_cheers:

Its very cold with a biteing wind here in Swindon.  Have been weeding a raised bed in the back garden and have come in for a warm up.  This is what I get for switching the central heating off.   :coffee2:

Lovely sunny day here in Yorkshire yesterday but freezing this morning. Sun came out for a bit this afternoon but now looking like rain (could do with some!).

Cold overnight here too, a very slight frost on the grass in patches around the garden and also noticed it frosty on the top of the chicken coop when I was letting the girls out. Beautifully sunny first thing  :sunny:

We had first proper downpour with rain today... :icon_cheers: BRILLIANT! Then it stopped, sun came out and so did I :sunny: :smileinbox:...rushed to plant most of the brassicas...all netted up and now ready and waiting for the next lot of rain that should arrive little later.. :icon_cheers: Fingers crossed that it does arrive..it will be just perfect for my newly planted plants, and will save me a job to go around with watering can.

Let it rain....pleeeeease!
