    Night time temperatures in April, according to the Met Office, were the coldest for 99 years. Our complaints are warranted.

    Waitrose used to say we were not allowed at accept tips, but now the official line is 
    " it's allowed to take accept a  tip , if refusal would offend"

    Offend whom?
    I just realised I forgot to get the tender plants in from the greenhouse last night. All week it hasn't gone below 7° in there but typically on the night I forget it drops to 2°. Nothing looks too badly affected so far so I might get away with it. 
    I checked on my seeds while I was in there though and all the borages have sprouted now and sweetpeas are starting to poke through. The bees will be pleesed.  :)
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Sneezes with a mouth full of wheatabix are one of the real highlights of toddler keeping :|

    I use cash as much as I can and our pharmacy accepts cash. Not keen on debit card use for everything don’t necessarily want the bank to know where I buy my sandwiches.

    South Wales, and that was the temperatures inside the greenhouse. It's been much colder with the wind outside.
