But the daphne seems to be stuck :-(

Why on earth do you Brits complain about your climate? I'm seeing all
kinds of posts of blooming plants and frogs in love and garden life
proceeding, and there's still a (small) pile of snow unmelted in a
shady corner of my yard from 2 weeks ago. A couple of crocus look
hopeful. A 1-day warm spell today (19C) is sandwiched between
A
yesterday's and tomorrow's (forecast) 4C, which will probably
encourage many plants to spring(!) into life and be frozen by possible
snow next mid-week. No okra is a small price to pay!

Nah - we don't complain about the climate, it's the lousy weather that gets us
worked up ;~}

14C, Bees on the Snowdrops and Crocus...........now it's raining again:~}


nd 4 deg C forecast for Sunday

and force 8 and it's still raining.
