Not too bad here either Salino - I've just been out and checked - it's 7C at the moment - it got up to about 10C earlier.
To be on the safe side I've lowered the lid on the cold frame, but still left it open a fair bit, and I've brought my one and only dahlia into the garage, just in case.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
They got it wrong yet again. Hard frost, porridge morning here but the sun is definitely a'cummin in and glinting on the hedgerows. When I went out late with the dog I could feel the temperature had dropped so I'm not really surprised. The cars all have well frosted windows. I can see a boy headibg for the school bus, he's making patterns with his feet in the frozen grass
Same here in Essex, noticed before I went to bed the cloud had cleared after the rain and the temperature was dropping fast. Amazing patterns on the cars this morning! Sun is up so I can get on with a bit of weeding today
In Norfolk we've a sharp frost at the front of the house - the car windscreen is frozen and there's ice on the puddles; we're near the bottom of a slight valley so the cold air rushes down and forms a frost hollow at the front.
At the back, the gardens are terraced with big fences which seems to stop the cold air rushing down into the back gardens so it has to get much colder before the back garden is frosted. Only 1.7C in the back garden overnight.

Bring on the frost
I've got my seedlings out on the garden table.
4C here in Dorset but damp with it. Sunshine 'promised' tomorrow but I'll need to see it before I believe it
Hope the sun is out tomorrow, been cold and pouring down here all day. Cold and crisp with sun I can do, cold and wet - no thanks.
..hardly.....I'm in the south of France...
