    It’s a long weekend here. Monday is 8 hour day or Labor Day. Well, it used to be called that when I was a kid, not sure what they call it now. 🙃
    its sunny with intermittent clouds, but the southerly is biting cold from the ski fields. 
    Morning everyone.

    Morning Pat. 
    I still can't get my head round cold Southerly winds and warm Northerly winds.
    Any signs of rain to come?

    No rain, but they are predicting snow on the peaks this weekend (hence the freezing winds).🤬

    The words "snow" and "freezing" fill me with fear.

    They don’t exactly thrill me either Hosta. This winter seems to have been longer and colder than usual. One of the old timers who I was speaking to recently said that this past winter had been like the ”old days”.  Makes you think, doesn’t it.

    Just thinking about your comment about north/south winds. I wonder if Antartica if colder than the Arctic or not. I don’t know.

    I think Antartica is much colder than Arctic ( but I'm often wrong )

  • Hiya you two ...  :)

    Blue sky and sunshine here but only 4C ... hope it warms up as we’re going to a barbecue party at son’s new premises this evening to celebrate moving and expanding the business. What’s a girl to wear???

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    I'd certainly take a pashmina.
