      Lovely sunny day and thoroughly enjoyed our walk into town this morning....it was quite Spring like!!:biggrin::SUNsmile: 11C. Temps are beginning to dip now at night low 5C..


      We have an old freezer in a sheltered spot ( or so we had thought), waiting for me to decide how I can reuse the glass shelves in the greenhouse....as you do..waste not want not!! :biggrin:
      The wind was so strong that it actually toppled it over and if it wasn't for our stored wooded table next to propping it up it would've crashed right over. Our Caravan covers were ripped and so was another section of our lean to cold frame.

        Apparently there's a huge meteor shower going on overhead, but it's thick cloud and tipping it down with rain, so nothing seen.

              That always happens when it's cloudy or maybe raining.

                  Hi,

                  Usual black hole but so far no rain and no wind although it poured down again during the night. temperatures dropping; frost; ice & snow can't be far away.

                  Kind regards, Colin.

                          Feeling much cooler this morning with temperatures down to 4c. It's dry and calm and we might see the sun soon.

                            Hurray, we had 5mm of rain yesterday. Not much after so long without and probably won't phase our dams but my garden loved it.

                            Currently lightly overcast 10c going to mid teens and the possibility of a shower. :fingers crossed:

                                We've just finished repairing the damage out in the garden/ caravan cover and hopefully everything is battened down/ water tight now before our next lot of rain arrives this afternoon.:fingers crossed::fingers crossed:
                                We've donned our waterproofs and are now heading out to Southampton to reward ourselves with a meal out. :yahoo:
