from Sacha contains these words:

We've been reading of the pretty nasty temperatures in Scotland and I'm
wondering how gardeners there are coping? I'm sure Janet on her Isle of
Arran will tell us that she's basking in the sunshine and went swimming
this
morning but hope others aren't too wrecked by the weather? ;-)

It's been sunny most of the day in Aberdeen. This is the first day that
melting has exceeded the overnight accumulation of snow. We still have 12"
or so of the stuff, and more is falling now. Bird feeders and bird bath were
in big demand today, and the squirrel finally found one of the feeders. I
remember reading a hilarious article on one mans fight against the squirrel.
He was an American journalist I think - bit hazy though - that might be
nonsense. Anyone remember?
