ali-s Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 A really hard frost this morning and -2c when I got up at 6 am. The sun soon melted the frost and shone until after 8pm. Nice and warm too by mid morning. Such a lovely day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Lovely hot day, been in the garden most of it and planted up two sinks full of alpines and the last of the potatoes. Popped out to Aldi for some bedding plants and spotted a pheasant flailing around in the middle of the road Poor chap was beyond help so I did the deed and he's now hanging in the woodstore.

Well done you for putting him out of his misery. I am not sure that I would have the courage to do it Edited to keep on thread....lovely sunny day but a bit of a chill wind this morning when I was watching DD play football.

Valkyrie Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Grey blanket this morning and a bit chilly. The sun is trying to break through - but what we have here looks nothing like the picture on Sky News! Perhaps we are under a little black blob - I thought we were further over. Ho hum, it had better improve I have lots to do in the garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Saturday and Sunday both had cold, cloudy starts, but turned out lovely. Yesterday was superb from start to finish, got some stuff done in the garden, but there's just never enough time, is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Here too, I sat outside for lunch and didn't want to go back to work! clootie, I miss the Norfolk accent - the folk's house up there is now empty pending sale so none of us can go and stay there. We're hoping to pop up at the end of May though and stay with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Beautiful in Sheffield yesterday too, even better than Sunday. Pity I had to work. Very cold in the evening though, and frost on the grass this am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Came over partly cloudy/hazy yesterday late afternoon. But I did some poo picking and I could feel the sun burning my arms! Today is much warmer and sunnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 I spent every school holiday there as a child and miss it dreadfully. The house was handy recently as it provided a free holiday for Rosie and I, just had to drive over there and provide food. I hope that it sells though. Haze has lifted here and it's lovely and sunny again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its terrible really, but I don't have anything else to really do in the veggie beds now & am s"Ooops, word censored!"ping around looking for little jobs. The lettuces & cabbages are out, the tom-toes are tucked up in their grow bags,. *whispers* could really do with a spot of rain now....................
