Frost due?
Here near Stoke on Trent in the North Midlands I see that a temperature
of 2 deg C is forecast for Monday night with 4 deg C the next night. Strong probability of a frost I suspect. Lots of work for me as I have just planted out my bedding plants and outdoor toms. |

Hopefully no frost and the fleece stuff was rolled up and put away months ago. I guess you will get away with those cool nights with the bedding plants as long as the daytime temps are reasonable. Tomatoes are far too tender for me so I stick to Bananas and Gingers:-) |

I remember the furore caused when the BBC said there would be, "a touch of
frost" one night. It was summer and a lot of people had forgotten the programme of David Frost's was called that!!! Geoff |

I do remember them using that terminology a few times and I even remember "Frost on Sunday" |

I do remember them using that terminology a few times and I even remember "Frost on Sunday" but that isn't what Geoff said. A Touch of Frost is/was a detective series featuring David Jason. http://imdb.com/title/tt0108967/ -- Martin It is indeed a detective thing but I remember the terminology being used decades ago -and later on there will be a Touch of Frost (big grin from presenter) with David Frost talking to (any celebrity). |

Here in sunnyless France (50 kilometres South of Clerrmont Ferrand) we had a big frost last night and yet today we ate outside at friends at lunchtime in the sun!! Our tomatoes are still in their big pots ready to be planted tomorrow, it's just as well they were put on the south facing wall. Judith |

I can't make this weather out, today pouring again but so warm, thunder lightening last night yet at lunchtime yesterday, we ate outside!!! I must devise a way to dry my washing as I don't have a tumble drier, ah penny just dropped, string up a line in the barn! Judith |

Put it in the traditional bread oven? We do have a bakehouse attacked to the main house, it has a huge circular oven with bricks top bottom and sides, if I lit that I could feed the five thousand! Judith |

I imagined an old French cottage. Not quite, a 6 bedroom old farmhouse made of Auvergne stone. I love it, it's not at all posh, we have stone floors downstairs, the kitchen is vaulted and none of the rooms are square, it's heaven and not only that, our neighbours are exceptional, they are not as some English percieve the French, they are warm, loving and welcoming. The sun is peeking in and out so I can try and sow some lettuce today without it being washed out of the soil. Judith |
