    Hi

    Here in London we've been seeing Bees for weeks....don't know how they coped with last weeks frosts:confused:
  • I've not seen any bees yet but we did have a huge wasp in the kitchen the other day
  • I've seen bees and wasps in my garden too :confused: crazy weather!

    we have knocked down the old shed, hacked off the rotten bits and out of the useful wood, we made box for the recycling to stop the cats and dogs ripping them apart, and the old wood has gone for the chimnea,
    Missed this before, please don't burn treated wood, its full of nasty things that won't do you any good.
    Google burning treated wood for more info...... And don't add the ash to your garden if you have burnt it!
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    i think i'm going to make myself get out in the greenhouse this sunday afternoon and put some seeds in pots again, i will get the bloomin aubergines and tomatoes to germinate even if i do have to have a word with them!
    I also hope we get good weather so i can do some weeding and sorting out, i really feel the need to get outside in the fresh air again.

    We've seen plenty of bees and even a Peacock butterfly so far this year. The Peacock was around just over two weeks ago during the lovely warm period we had.

    My colleague has also seen a couple of lizards basking on a fence post!

    Jobs for me to do, well I suppose they'll be in March now, is to erect a greenhouse I've been given for nothing, do some digging and get some seeds planted. Oh and I need to build some garden steps (got some bricks coming next week) and also need to lay some slabs on my vegetable patch.

    The lawn could do with a trim too but it is still a bit too damp.
    All I seem to hear is blah blah blah!
