It is snowing again, the roads are coping but it is settling on paths
and grass, thank goodness I got a full days work in the garden
yesterday, I think I will stay by the fire today and make plans

Poor you! We've been threatened with some light snow but, at the moment,
it's 2.5degC outside, so the showers we've had have remained wet. Hope
it stays that way.

I had an afternoon in the garden on Sunday, but it's pretty dismal out
there. It's too early to count losses yet, but there are some very
sad-looking specimens:~(. I spent most of the time cutting old leaves
off Hellebores, sweeping up and picking fallen twigs off the lawn.

I'll have another look around at the weekend. Alas, I have a recurring
mould problem in my office, so indoors has more call on my time just now.

Have you considered growing mushrooms?

Alternatwively, post to 'uk.d-i-y' for advice :-)

I prefer to eat mushrooms, not be taken over by them! :~)

I think RG looks in on the diy group, but he's going to try his own plan of
action first; but thank you for the suggestion.
