Well dont send them up here! ;D
Not seen any "whites" but noticed a couple of "Red Admiral" types the other day.I say "types" because Im not sure what they were!
Time to be vigilant anyway.

Spotted a nice orange tip today, but none of the cabbage varieties yet.

went to water the g/h today and saw cabbage whites about - early? the swifts arrived today as well and I reckon that's a bit early - a good sign but I'm not sure for who :)
