Me as well @Jiffy. Just another day as far as I'm concerned :biggrin: I do have sympathy for our capital's cancelled Hogmanay events though. A...
I think it also comes down to budget, and what you want to achieve beyond May. A marquee will certainly help with some protection of the ground...
A wet, windy start here, which is to be a main feature for the next few days, with temps dropping to more normal levels later in the week, and...
Sod's Law indeed @Obelix-Vendée, and it's why I rarely take sandwiches too - usually a banana is the best thing for me, with the oatcakes/crackers...
I'd agree with @shiney - better to just leave the grass a bit longer through spring, especially if it's likely to be drier in late April/early May...
Sorry @Obelix-Vendée - I meant the butter that's spread on the teabread/B. Brith, rather than any that's in the mix itself. :smile:
Another similar day here - damp/smirry. O'night low was 6 degrees [8 just now at approx.8.45 am] with a predicted high of around 9 again, so it's...
That's the one @shiney. :blue thumb: I actually looked yesterday when I was doing something else, but I didn't post. I could remember the...
Another cloudy, damp start. Fog isn't very common for us as it tends to be low cloud or smirr instead. O'night low of 7 degrees [8 just now at...
I doubt any teabread or fruitcake would make it as far as a hill @Obelix-Vendée ;) The problem with B. Brith/teabreads is the butter. It would...
Siskins are quite thin on the ground here - or should that be thin on the feeders... We do have them, but they don't come in the garden very...
I meant to look for Spam last night when I did the shopping, but forgot. I remember my Mum giving it to us when we were young. Vile stuff....
My first garden was a pretty empty canvas, but a lack of money, and just having had a child when we moved in, meant that I had to spend time...
It does sound similar to all the teabreads, but I do as @Obelix-Vendée and @NigelJ describe with the overnight soaking, then baking. Not made one...
I just forward every dodgy spam email to the site you can report them to [which I've forgotten the name of...] There was a huge deluge of them...
A damp start here, but too dark to see if it's misty rather than cloudy. O'night low was 7 degrees [8 just now at approx. 8.10am] with a predicted...
Many saxifrages are very adaptable - they like some sun, but they certainly don't mind dampness. They wouldn't last long here if they didn't cope...
I always get a receipt too, especially as I use the automatic checkouts most of the time. It saves any problems occurring. Our local Asda had to...
Look like cormorants to me. They're residents in the UK. @strongylodon will be able to confirm or correct though.
Wet start here. O'night low of 9 degrees [9 just now at approx. 8.20am] with a predicted high of the same temp. To be wet most of the day,...
