Sunday. Washed down and disinfected greenhouse.
Monday. Cleaned and disinfected numerous seed trays. Lopped broken branch of budleia.

The flowers that bloom in the spring, trala!

blimey - if that isn't guaranteed to bring on Fimbulwinter, I don't know what is

- only joking, Theo, I reckon all the cherry trees round here would be in blossom already, if it hadn't been for the recent cold snap.

not as optimisitc as me apparently, i set these chilli seeds as it had been mild and then it snowed for 14 days!!

Ah well, bringing Spring forward a bit is a good idea.
We need a change of scene from this cold weather.
As for Easter, Please tell it to go away. I have so much to do before then.

allieyoung666 · 07-03-2005, 21:26

So that is why it is so bloody cold still, thanks for that incognitias!!!!!

Err, take a look at the forecast, guys.

On Friday they're predicting winds coming down from the north and a return to zero temperatures...!
