I've just got up to a frosty morning and for today at least it looks like we'll have some seasonal winter weather. With luck it will last for a while 'cos I'd really like my garlic to divide properly this year. :lol:

I was just about to post back "just a slight frost here in NW Wales and not much more forecast", when I look out and it's snowing.

It's a gorgeous day here now, cold but bright, the sort of weather even lazy people don't want to stand about doing nothing for long. :shock: :D :wink:

As for me being up latter than you, maybe i had a good reason for it. :wink:

Jopsy, don't light any matches, check the oven after ventilating the kitchen.
