    We are freezing here. Wind from a southern “low” and the strong wind is carrying sleet with the rain.😡 I can’t win. Need the rain but don’t need the cold temps. It’s snowing in the ski fields in both NSW and Vic.

    Morning, 

    After a beautiful day here yesterday it's now forecast rain all day. I'm going to a flower show this afternoon so doubly disappointed. I don't get out often and to rain when I do is just not fair! 

    Must dash, lot of prep to do so I can leave the building in safe hands. Have a good day all, walking, hairdressing & wedding shopping! Bonne journée Chicky!

    Bon voyage chicky - ir should that be 'chic' ky... :dizzy:
    Morning all/afties Pat. Sorry it's so chilly for you. We're still cool here, 5 or 6 degrees at present but sunny, down to 3 overnight,  but we seem to be out of the worst stuff now - apart from the highest hills which still have snow. Looking to be a pretty good day so I'm off to Glen Lyon soon.
    Arrochar LP . You always hear cuckoos there in spring. They were calling to each other on the lower slopes of Beinn an Lochain when I was on Donich :)
    Shame about your rain DD. Maybe it'll clear up for you though.
    Better go and do my exercises and get going. Have a fabulous day outside if you have the weather for it.   :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Morning all.
    late on parade due to plant IDs, soz.
    Brighter today so hopefully not so cold. I had to wear gloves yesterday when I was cutting the grass. My poor wee fingies were freezing.
    Have a lovely trip Chicky and a good weekend one and all.

    We started cutting grass yesterday morning, I planted out 18 plants, then the rainy season started and set in for the day,
    today doesn’t look much better, I am wearing fingerless mitts indoors!

    Bit drismal here today and set to last all day but deliver a whole 3mm of rain.   I'm off to buy some proper primer for the wardrobe I'm renovating.

    Need to pot up the 5 new achilleas as their bed isn't ready yet but they are bursting and then I'll plant out the drought tolerant thingummies I bought for the well bed.

    Enjoy your hills and plant fairs and whatever else you're all up to.
