I'll second that! We're on our third sunny day here in SE London and it
makes gardening so much more pleasant. I'm starting to harden off a few
tender and half-hardy plants which, somehow, makes it seem so much more
summery. However, I'm not going to be lulled into believing we've seen the
last frosts ... but I'll be glad when we have!

The really noticeable thing about warmer, sunnier weather is that people
start talking to each other again and are generally nicer. Now long may
that last.

Our lawns were white this morning and the surrounding fields even more so.

Amen to that! It's lovely to see people sitting out on the lawn for lunch
and tea and lolling about in that 'hot summer day' style. It's actually hot
here - not just warm, probably because there's not a breath of wind.

colder and less sun is forecast by the end of the week. Make the best of
the sun
while you can. In Zuid Holland, the minimum night temp is forecast to
be -2°C
from Thursday onwards.

It's sunny, but only 5°C here at the moment. The sea is only °4C

60F in the shade here and being SW perhaps we won't go Dutch with you on the
weather. Perhaps....

It's warmer inland around 12-14 °C
5°C is the temperature near the boulevard in Noordwijk.

It's been 17.8degC here in SE London, but we're on high ground, so it may
have been warmer in Central London and lower down our mini-mountain. It's
been very sunny and pleasant.
