I have just been in my garden to look at my Max/Min thermometer.
Minimum has been -12 and Max, this morning, is +8 or 9.
What have others recorded?
Everything looks very sad and I need to get out with secateurs and a
sack!


In our particular location just north of Nottingham we are usually fortunate
in missing those extremes of foul weather often suffered by other areas.....
don't know why this is. However, at some point in the last fortnight my
max-min thermometer recorded -15c....... and this was inside the greenhouse
!!
It was perhaps the day our central heating condensing boiler packed-up
because the drain outlet froze, apparently a common feature of this type of
boiler....according to today's Daily Mail.
