        Pffft. It's not that cold! You're simply not wearing enough layers out there.

        Wet mud, sodden grass the only thing worth doing is clearing the borders and thats hardly a joy. No, its too depressing. The only thing to look forward to is my mail order hornbeam plants that should be arriving over the next few months.

        Its usual for me loli. The wife calls me a miserable git but i am easily pleased and not high maintenance at all. I enjoy the simple things in life, the tweet of a dawn chorus, the scent of a rose and the red of a good sunset.
        I will awake early tomorrow just in time for England's first cricket match in India, the sight of hot sun at 4am on a winters morning cheers me some what.

                    Hornbeam arrived yesterday and planted today in the rain. The soil is thick and claggy HORRIBLE. Now i know why i hibernate. Got 4 left over so might add a few to fill any gaps.
