OK maybe not! Well in the official sense anyway..! Got so many plants that would like to go in - even my spuds have better chits than previous years but minus 1 down here on the tropical coast of England! Can't be global warming in just a couple of years surely?!

Please Mother Nature - a good summer reward for the rubbish last summer & bad winter!

I was laying in bed thinking earlier this morning, it would have only been a few centuries ago that when the weather was like it has been for the past two seasons, it would have meant starvation for the poorest of families.

We are a lucky lot really...... :)

Laying in bed thinking can be a dangerous practice OH!

The daffs in the garden think it's spring, my chickens think it's spring (eggs all over the place :D ) but I don't think winter has finished with us yet....

We are lucky OH.
For all the moaning about the weather last summer and this winter, I still have 4 bags of potatoes in the garage. Still using up the squashes. Parsnips, leeks, and carrots still on the plot. It's not all bad is it :D
Cheers PJ.

I'm just off down the greenhouse. I won't be long...........
