Default Cold? or just a bit chilly?

Wearing winter clothes in the garden today. Very cold, my nose was running,
my ears were cold as ice.
Burning some of the last of the wood to keep warm in my bike shed now. I
though I had enough wood to burn well into autumn. Not so.

On the plus side, err mm can't see one today. A very strong and cold wind
started an hour or so ago, goes slack, then starts up again.

This is June for us.

We're a bit luckier than that. I was weeding the veg patch this morning in
jeans & a cotton shirt. But it's not the kind of day you hope for in June,
certainly!


We have frost threatened and perhaps snow in the north.

It's a nice 14C here, high cloud and a fair bit of sun. Showers/rain
forecast tomorrow. Typical I suppose as I'm visiting Anne W's garden
at the Veddw in the afternoon - long planned. I never seem to visit a
garden on a dry day! But if I cry off, I won't get to see it this
year. Anyhow, I suspect it's a garden that will look just as good in
the wet as in the sun. I'll tie a bar of soap to my head and kill two
birds with one stone ))

Cheers, Jake

Aye nice evening last night after a grey damp cool day. Min last
night of 1.2C and as it was quite clear so I wouldn't be surprised if
there was a ground frost but as it's half term no one was up
anything like early enough to see. Heating has been kicking for the
last couple of days, lit the wood burner last night. Much better day
today, over 10C from 1000.

Where are you? I'm over in Essex, and after an hour or so poking around the
garden and the cooler greenhouse, I had to strip off the sweatshirt. It was
much colder yesterday.

Don't say that! I just planted out my butternuts (finally!). Still haven't
had the nerve to put the sweet potatoes out, saw the forcast for the week and
told them to unpack their bags for a while longer.

I hope he's got a better day for it up there than we have down here.
Veddw doesn't do tea and cake so I can imagine Jake sloping off to
Chepstow for a warmer! I don't think Anne's expecting a huge influx of
visitors today!


I wish well to them both

One wonders if people simply dont care about the long term effects of
unrestricted pollution of the planet, and that the majority are likely
to suffer so the few can continue to generate enormous profits,
ultimately at the expense of pretty much everyone else?

Is it that the majority are simply too stupid to see whats going on,
or that they feel doing anything about it is way beyond their control?
