Had a standard fuchsia out for two weeks now, in a sheltered postion,
but we have had a couple of cold nights, and it is still very much OK.

Fuschias are fairly hardy.

Was told this morning by an early rising neighbour that we had a frost this
morning, at least his windscreen was iced. According to the weather forecast
the temp was only going down to 4 or 5°C last night so there seems to be
something awry.

Not at all. Frosts in April are normal for most of the UK, and so
are weather forecasts getting it wrong.
