Just had a look at the weather forecast for the weekend. At last the permafrost should lift and we are due to have a rather balmy 55 deg F...Yippee!!!!

I might even treat myself to Saturday AND Sunday at the allotment at this rate!

Frost again last night!

As usual weather men got it wrong again. Luckily I had the small paraffin heater under my toms, hope they are ok!

Our local Radio weatherman (Billingham) got it spot on and tends to, rushed home and put my stuff out of harm.

Everyone at work confessed that they had put their central heating back on last night. It felt really cold but everything is still going strong in the greenhouse.

Default When will the summer begin?
Well, here we are into July and still no sign of the summer. Most days are either cloudy or raining and the temp feels like winter!

Looks like it's going to be a SAD summer!
