My apologies. http://www.nos.nl/nosjournaal/artike...aatsfotos.html Nor here, I may say. The birds have been sowing bird seed. There is a brand of mixed seed that is sold by our local garden centre that none of the birds will eat. I suspect it contains pesticide or mold. It's very dangerous for them to be given old or mouldy seed. And in this dry weather we need to remember to put out shallow dishes of water for them. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon (new website online) |

I got some great winter photos in the freeze up but digging up some parsnips on the allotment was a bit of a pain to say the least. I jokingly said I'd better take the pickaxe to get some up, wish I had. -- Regards Bob Hobden |

A little further South it was -13 last night. -- David in Normandy.

A little further South it was -13 last night. According to my friend in Germany its -12 there. She actually likes it, saying it's not a "real winter" without it. I told her she's quite mad. |

I think we get a bit sheltered, if that's the right word, by being south of the moor. As to the garden, like you I'm a bit fearful as to what will have happened to some of the more tender things but we don't have Clianthus outside!! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon (new website online) |

-6C here last night and a white start to the day. It was about -20°C here in northern Germany two nights ago. The lowest temperature was recorded about 50 miles away at -28°C (Bad Lippspringe). It was only about -15°C last night. I haven't seen the good side of freezing point for over a week. It rarely climbs above -10°C during the day. My leeks look dead. I'm just glad the price of heating oil has fallen. We've just ordered 4000 litres for around £2000. In the spring 3000 litres cost us around £3000.

A blistering -4.8C in my garden two nights ago. ;-) That was the lowest temperature this winter so far. Last year in the same period, it was always a few degrees above freezing. -- Gordon H Remove "invalid" to reply |

The birds are eating us out of house and home and to our real pleasure, the long-tailed tits are back. We saw them for the first time ever last year and then they disappeared. But today they're back on the peanut feeder, vying for space with the blue tits. Hope you'll warm up soon, Alan - let us know how it goes. Reading your post reminds me of why that huge Camellia at Pilnitz near Dresden, has its own greenhouse on wheels for the winter! I think you get colder where you are, don't you? -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon (new website online) |
