north manchester powder snow . sunny now still got the wind chill. got my mower working .yipee .worrking pm ps went the post office great views of heaton pk in the sun
About -8c overnight, then beautiful sunshine again. In the shady part it reached +8c & a touch of snow on the bed still, (& frozen solid) but I was working in the sun - dunno what the temp was but seemed quite warm (T-shirt & sweatshirt). The soil there is quite dry , had to water a few more pots today.
In the west & down near Fort William there's moorland fires because the heather is so dry. -Yes it is Scotland in April!!
This part of the NW must have your sun, Jo, as it was another lovely day, no rain or wind and the sky was a meditrainean blue with white cloud this evening.
The longer evening has made such a difference, got home from work and there was still a couple of hours daylight left to enjoy the garden.
Hope it's nice on Saturday, going to the Nationalno gardening for me.
Chilterns - sunny,breezy and cool, but warm in GH. Spent a couple of hours potting-on Roma tomatoes, Primo cabbages, fuchsias,and tidying up pots of strawberries ( from runners), and pots of cauliflower and calabrese plant lets.
Everything looking healthy, and this afternoon up to the allotment, turning over the ground ready to plant Lady Christl new potatoes - sooooooooon, I hope!

WManchester was below freezing again first thing today, but some brightness. Then it tried to snow again!!
By mid morning was brighter, but freezing in that wind. Got a lot of little jobs done out there & the washing was nearly dry.
Soil very dry though & am having to regularly water the big pots of permanent plants. J.

no gardening for me.
Cornwall. Lovely sunshine, freezing wind and hard frosts at night. Lovely starry skies.
Cannot do much outside except clearing up dead growth and weeds.
Stockton sunny and bright, still that nip in the air from the easterly wind though.

Nr Lincoln.
Bright sunshine and a degree warmer than yesterday reaching the dizzy heights of 8c. but it is creeping up, so not too bad.
