We have FROST!!!!!!

after this VERY mild winter we have frost:T

Now dont get me wrong, i hate the cold, but with a conversation on the daydream fund, how the very mild winter could potentially have an adverse effect on fruit etc this year, it is good news, unless if things have started to bud etc...

another good thing the frost will kill off some pests and diseases... ( if we get more hard frost)

I am cuddled up with a blanket on the sofa ...as i am freezing:rotfl:time to turn the fire up and put more coal on it, to make the house toasty warm

    Frost here too! And even though it's still dark, the birds are twittering away outside. Hmm... "toasty warm"... I could just eat a piece of buttery toast...
    If I'm over the hill, where was the top?

    I've just seen three lots of flying ducks in their triangle formation,at least I think they are ducks? Apparently this is a good sign that it's going to be really cold shortly as they are off to warmer places.

    So much for all this snow we were suppose to get in October.I bought a snow shovel and all it's doing is collecting dust in the garage :(

    well at least it will not go off, and you can use it next year...( but we still have time before now and spring for snow)

    It's all white here with frost not snow :( I want to put my lavender,mint,rosemary and oregano in the greenhouse but they are in pots on the decking and that is like an ice rink.Dare I risk slipping for a few herbs? Or should I be mean and let the !!!!!!s get colder.
