the vine?
I don't remember having such vigorous growth at this time of
year before!

Lucky you, mine are all outside, a row of about 15 plants laden with
fruit and now totally dead due to a vicious frost. *If I were in your

We were pretty close to a frost last night, apparently - it certainly
felt very brisk this morning!

The sun is shining here, brilliant blue sky but not as warm as it
usually is at this time of year. Isn't it a bit early for you to have
a near frost in Devon this early?

It is, though it can happen. Some trees are turning quite quickly now
and leaves are falling more. Some years, the trees are still green on
Guy Fawkes night.
