thanks katy, can you tell that it's not central heated ?  :P

i've just popped down there to store some more ginger bottles, and it's a darn sight warmer in there today than yesterday.

i've got my blackcurrant and redcurrant bushes soaking in buckets and was going to plant them (in pots) today, might have to leave them resting in the shed though to acclimatise.

This is very strange,  ???

Hi all,

We had a few feeble flurries yesterday but today I built my herb-garden seat ... Then sat on it in the warm sun admiring my first daffodils, singing along to the radio snacking on chocolate ... and not wearing a coat.

Here it is spring

Col


... famous last words ?
... I am warmed by winter sun and by the light in your eyes.
I am refreshed by the rain and the dew
And by thoughts of you...

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!  Just flown back from a few days in Seville where it was t-shirts and flip-flops at 23 degrees - lovely and so strange to see all those oranges hanging from the trees whilst walking along speaking to OH who was telling me it was snowing at home!

Down here in Newbury I was down the Lottie this morning and it started snowing about 10...went on for about an hour and then stopped......nothing at all to speak off though and it didn't settle.

No snow here, but I'm certainly NOT going to plant anything!! :(    ... yet ;)

-4 and freezing here but no snow.  Drove down from Essex to East Kent this evening with temperature dropping from +0.5 north of Thames.  Can anyone please explain to me the term 'global warming'?  Seems to me we're getting colder, longer winters......  On the plus side,  I'm thinking that although I was rather late planting my garlic (late Jan) the frosts and sub zero temps since then have done me a favour and my bulbs will have cloved bootifully.

Well think back to last month, here we had temps a little under 10ºC to me that's sleeveless shirt digging weather. 8)

This day last year we had a minimum temp of -2ºC that matches this years temp, if it follows the same pattern then the temps will be in double figures in less than a weeks time...  :o Friday 18th March 2005 we had a max temp of 19.5ºC Whoohoo  8) fingers crossed. 8) ;D
