    Not a bad day and not that chilly...then again I've been adding another 300mm of lagging in the attic because it was running with condensation due to this ever changing weather.

    Its freezing, freezing cold here. I went out in the car at 9am and the temperature was reading -3.5'c!!! I spent the morning building a raised bed to replace a grotty lavender hedge next to the patio-hands are torn to bits but its done now, finally.
    I kept popping in to warm up and surf the net every half and hour or so :)

    The longer this goes on the colder it will get, but no sign of a change.

    :) Same here Pete.......Perishing cold bbbbrrrrrr.
    But just think how healthy it is and it's killing all those bugs and germs.
    I prefer this to cold and wet .......anytime.

    Except the ground is frozen so I wasn't able to plant anything today, but agree, better than rain.

    Dont know about healthy Roders, but it dont half push up the heating bills, plus some of my plants are sure to croak if it gets much worse or becomes below zero all day.

    I dont like rain, but intense cold I like even less, lets just hope it doesn't get any worse.:)
