Morning from sunshiny Puppyland. Temperature dipped below freezing last night, for the first time this winter. Sun's up now and the garden is glowing
Have a luvly day whatever you're up to

[Sheneval]

Morning all, -4 here this morning - car locks were frozen but roads were not too bad :-)

[rustylady]

Bluddy freezing here this morning. The cars and house roofs are white, and the pavements slippy

Tad wintry here this morning too. Had to take better half to work. Traffic ok on way out. But tailed back 5 miles or so on road into the city. I went for a half hour chat to a pal. Tarffic only tailed back 2½ miles by the time I came home .

[Hazel at the Hill]

Morning all! Cold here last night too - the birds were glad of their food this morning, I hadn't walked the 5 steps back to the back door and Mrs Blackbird was tucking in.

If they are very lucky I will give them a top up at lunchtime. Mr Blackbird is there as I type, and the pigeons, robin and magpies have all been tucking in, and I'm sure that the dunnocks are flitting in the hedge at the back too.

Enough of this - I have plenty to keep me busy behind the desk - thank you for the yorks puddings tips, folks, I'll read them again properly later on .

Lottie - In later years when I was hill walking and staying at youth hostels and bothies I was able to burn bacon, eggs sausages and beans as well as any of my fellow hill walking companions as we took turns - nobody ever complained to our faces

Choice between ironing and jam making...iron/jam ...iron/jam...iron/jam....jam/jam...jam/jam....

Ha! well then, looks like I'll be making jam today then!!

Cold and very sunny here- looks lovely outside.
It's days like these I still think ...ohhh...what a lovely morning to go off for a ride on my horse.
Problem is he's 24 and lives in the UK with my daughter.

Morning all!
Cold night here last night, frost everywhere still in the shade, although the bright sunshine has melted it elsewhere.
Onion seedlings are pushing on and my Chrysanth stools are throwing up some nice new shoots.
I wasn't going to sow anything else this month but maybe I'll do some brassicas in a day or two!

Dentist in an hour though...

[Jeanied]

Oh dear, dogs up to no good in the garden again - it looks like they have dug up my lavender and chewed it to bits. Now they are dancing over the furniture with muddy paws.

Must stir myself to take them for a walk.

Tad wintry here this morning too. Had to take better half to work. Traffic ok on way out. But tailed back 5 miles or so on road into the city. I went for a half hour chat to a pal. Tarffic only tailed back 2½ miles by the time I came home .

And I thought I was bad with a couple of hundred yards
