  • I am officially nuts

    I have just been clocked by some neighbours, with sweeping brush in hand, brushing snow off my bamboo plant and various other plants

    Their faces!!

    Not nuts- except for the bit where you did it - I sent OH out to brush mine off!

      Actually snow is a good insulator against the frost. You only need to brush it off if it's threatening to break branches.

        That was the problem RL - my bamboo is very tall and it had been taken down to ground level and stuck into the snow, it looks very sorry for itself

          Take pride in that and wear it like a badge. Who wants to be normal? Also you get away with a lot more if people think you're barmy
          Never test the depth of the water with both feet

          The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

          Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

            Your not nuts, I did this with my bay, I agree snow is a good insulator but when things are bent double, it has to be knocked off.... here's something to make you smile till the better weather gets here.

                If you could just extend the sweeping around camp a bit Piskie, that would be grand. We're coming up tomorrow - hot water and towels time has arrived!
                Actually they've sent a work crew round to clear the drives/road for DD and her neighbour both ready to pop!
                Life is too short for drama & petty things!
                So laugh insanely, love truly and forgive quickly!

                    I do the same with my pampas grass plumes the birds use them for nesting so I don't want them to get too damaged.

                        I swept the build up snow and ice off my car roof and snapped the flaming aerial off.

                        I was quite 'nuts' about that!
