    I think first frost we could change the title and blame it in the cold - or we could blame it on Christmas -or the boogie.

    Maybe just "weather" would cover it.

    March is a bit unfair.April fool's day would be the ticket -if we can go anywhere. It would give them a chance to sort it all out.
    No French beans or Brussels sprouts . Have you been stockpiling seeds? Dutch hoes will be banned too.

    Re stupid washing instructions:  when OH was (much!) younger, he played football for a local team.  His official kit had a label in which said "Wash by hand using mild soap and not detergent".  Great for grass stains... not...
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    I just bought a washing machine that actually says in the instructions "not intended to be used by persons with reduced mental capacity". Sadly going by the spelling and grammar mistakes in the booklet that includes the person who wrote that in the first place.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
