      I am not to far away from you, but lucky to not get a frost/chill, still went to the plot today armed with fleece cloches to cover the squash and pumpkins that are planted out - just in case

        I'm covering my eyes and going lalalalalalalalala - cos we are in a frost pocket in Benson, but sadly I only have a very small bit of fleece and it wouldn't cover everything at lottie and here at home plot .....so which babies to chose for the death sentence....lalalalalalalalala

          Took the cloches off the peas tonight, they'd pretty much outgrown them. I'm chitting myself now! Pretty much covered all the spud growth that I could, very worrying.

                Not like you'll have to duck very far now is it - what with our height differences! I 'ate Tescos, can I go to Sainsbury's instead?

                I've just treated LadyWayne to an extra 2 degrees - heating's on 21c now!!

                Just checked my diary, and it gives me bank/public holidays and week numbers, moon phases and all sorts, but I can't find the date for "last frost" anywhere....

                    Her glass of wine has ice in it - go figure.
