Awful weather - typical Brits talk

I suppose if I were adept enough I could Photoshop the frost pic to show as a signature, or for the Mail click bait page, face of Jesus

😹 @ face of Jesus. 

Couple of frosts here last couple of nights and decidedly cooler.  Pottered about gathering up leaves today and lazed about watching autumn watch on catch up.  Bracing myself for the onslaught of fireworks expected tonight and already feeling sorry for the dogs and wildlife that suffer because of them.  Bah humbug lol.

Depressing being on Lockdown again but necessary with so many losing their lives.  Are you guys coping okay (I know it's early days)?

This current weather is so unseasonable, most of the bulbs planted a month or so ago are starting to show through their pots/ground. Hopefully, we'll get a bit of decent cold weather shortly to push em back down.

Too late for a few of my cowslips, which have begun flowering!

Lockdown? What's that? Off tomorrow to make sure our stock of Lidl's yummy stoneground rolls doesn't run out completely. It's only 12 miles.....and I might see someone I know in a public place nearby!

Hi Ian (would put "I" but looks confusing), yes my bulbs are also shooting up, poor things are confused with the way our weather changes.  We've had a couple of frosty nights so maybe... just maybe... they'll go back to sleep.  Lol D, cowslips flowering already?  Don't think you can push them back into the ground, maybe your "friend" can help you 😘

Fireworks weren't so bad last night although there are less pigeons about this morning.  Good thing for some peeps but I don't mind them, after all they clear all the bits off the ground from the feeders. Gonna be a dry crisp day here so planning on sweeping up some more fallen leaves 🐈

Theoretically, it's warmer here today than yesterday or Wednesday morning, but that's ignoring wind chill....

Definitely brass monkeys when I released the hens at 07.30, so I think my ardour today will be softer!

😹  Had to look up what "ardour" meant, thought it was.. well not sure what I thought lol

You'll definitely warm up if you have to chase any chickens about later!  Plus you can burn off some of those stoneground rolls calories!

Morning C, yes bloomin parky here again last night/this morning ❄️

Nicely sunny with a bit of wind today. Early amble round the block, eyes open for dead firework rockets

I used to get a reasonable haul of the rocket sticks and used for plant type things, like small support for young plants.

However, none at all this year but there weren't as many fireworks here last night so understandable

I have some "free" daff bulbs on the way from Parkers, part of offer for buying "Peace" roses, e-mail said being packed and Hermes will let me know when arriving

Why does that does not make me very confident?

We've had a beautiful clear skies since Wednesday, lower temps but who cares if it's a lovely day 🌞🌞🌞😎 

F, think positive, maybe that parcel will exceed your expectations !
