    morning. Badfrost here over night. Giung to rush out now and check nothing else tender. Someof cars are still white. Visitors today, styaing overnight, They have just phoned to ask if we would like to walk up the Beacon. Used bad foot as excuse- been an excuse for over 18months and not been able to driv e in that time.

    Going to meet them at this nice pub 'onother side of hill' for lunch now

    Might not have much time for chat - don't fill too many pags so I can catch up. 

    Montalbano was weird last night. Radio Times says in book he's very low.

    Don't think there was a frost as such- but was a bit nippy at 7.30

    At the risk of repeating myself-never, ever,ever take any account long term weather forecasts-notoriously unreliable-I can safely predict there will be snow somewhere in the country before the end of the year-but other than that total tosh.

    I can also predict that when it does snow-it will be the main headline on all news bulletins -providing it falls in England and causes travel chaosimage

    Just nipped out. For somewnere no rain was forecast we had 7mm. Temp overnight in greenhouse was 1.5. Quite like the idea of temp gauge  that is on window. 

    Cake survived without beingeaten. Apple cake for visitors tea!

    Hot news-one of the new chickens has laid her first egg-extra small does not really cover itimage

  • Morning all, agree about SCD marking and odd hairstyle, must be the fashion! Nice to see VP doing better.



    Mmm, apple cake, do you put flaked almonds on top? Tasty, tasty, very very tasty!



    Must get the wallflowers in today.

    Hello FF, just read posts over a toasted currant teacake. Apologise for absence,

    out visiting a friend last night. A take away and SCD. Chatting too much to really watch though, will have to whizz through to recording! Lovely time and a good catch up!



    Thanks for info Flobear, I usually bring my lemon in. It does usually fruit but last year not so happy. Trimmed it well back and leaves returned. I think I will put in the conservatory as it smells so lovely, then unheated greenhouse by early March.

    Will see if happier.



    Sunshine on and off today. May go for a walk.

    Bye for now image

    Useful locker, Becks, I think I'll get one too if cake might magically appear in it.

    Hello everyone, website - or poss. my computer - not playing ball last night and have been  out all morning with dogs and OH so have got a bit behind. Louis's hair - eurgh. Bruce's jokes - switch off brain and ignore. Merlin, fab but what had happened to that poor little dragon? Then Friday's Miranda - loved it even tho' a repeat. Gary - gorgeous IMO. Knitting progressed well with all the TV watching but changed my mind about the pattern and undid it all to start again.

    Right, a bit of garden time while the sun lasts.

    Seeya later.
