Yet here in Stirling, Scotland I have not had a frost since early April.
Tonight it's forecast for +5°C

Latest forecast speaks of the risk of frosts until after the weekend,
now. I'm glad the runners are still growing inside...


Mine have been in three weeks :-)

My neighbouring allotment holder lost half of his runners on Wed night -
quite dead! A lesson to remember for next year....
