That's right LQ and I had driven from Dorset to Shropshire house hunting .
We stayed in B&B in the stables of a farmhouse and it was freezing .
We had to be guided through the snow to the main road in the tracks of a tractor
My son was 3YO and fed the Peacocks at the farmhouse.
Everything in the garden is going to be late this year , I have had to re sow some seeds.
My hydrangea looks good, after it was caught by a late frost last year I cover it every evening with an empty dustbin.
