Beautiful Day!!
It's a glorious sunny day in Bristol.
I'm going to my greenhouse and tinker with my new drip watering system. Just got a water timer to finish it off. |

Occasional snow showers in a biting wind and a garden that squelches when you put a foot on it. Another day in sunny Aberdeen :-(( Chris S |

This is more than a little off-topic, but in the northeastern American colony of New York, it's 25F, with a couple of inches of snow overnight and more predicted. I don't dare open any garden catalogs; it would be like grocery shopping when you're hungry!

For a very brief time it rose to 15C yesterday here in Torbay,
although a light wind kept an edge to the perceived temperatures. Glorious weather? You bet! - I went outside and gave everything a good long soak in order to counter the dust-dry conditions that have prevailed here over the past 5 or 6 weeks. I noticed that my Valencia orange in a large pot close to the house was looking exceptionally parched, but fair play to it, there are already clusters of flower buds ready to open. With much warmer temperatures on the way, I hope that everything that went into stasis due to the very late arrival of winter, will now resume growth and get on where it left off.

I managed 4 hours in the garden without the need for clothes. Wonderful! Buds in the orchard, daffodils & primroses out and bluebells pushing up. I gives you hope! |

Make sure you don't leave the timer on at the moment as they're not frost proof and are very expensive to replace. -- Martin & Anna Sykes ( Remove x's when replying ) http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~sykesm |

What Duncan doesn't tell you, is that he lives in a real 'Tropical Pocket' on the Isle of Wight and only about 2 miles North ;-) it could freeze 'bits off you' at the same time ;-)) I have a pocket like that in my back garden, but it is only 'deck chair' sized :-(( Mike -- H.M.S.Collingwood Ass.
