But this morning's weather forecast warns of 'The Beast From The East'. We are, at last, to have some freezing winter weather. How disappointing. I had thought we might be returning to last decade's run of mild winters and getting back on track for global warming. Only yesterday I was thinking of trying an acacia dealbata again (my sapling was destroyed by last winter's big freeze).
At least I can console myself that the effort spent last November bubble-wrapping the greenhouse for the first time will not be wasted after all and that my Christmas present, a greenhouse heater, will no longer be redundant.
