Hell's Bells and Basins of Cold Sick! We've just had a FROST warning for tomorrow night!! The Pigs!! All our hanging baskets, tubs etc filled with tender (and expensive) plants are outside. The apple and pear blossom is at full throttle; bees (big fat bumbles and honey variety) are out too, attracted by the oilseed rape flowers. Birds are all busy with their nestlings, and now they DARE to send us blasted frost. It'll kill everything! I can't ask my long-suffering husband to hump all those heavy pots and tubs back into the greenhouse. He'd either kill me and bury me under the veggie plot, or head back to Africa in a dudgeon.
Sorry Patsy to hear you've had some bereavements and worries recently.
Hope your mum improves. Some more summery weather might help her!
