..we just rain as usual.

Or rain. Just a sunny but cold, crisp February day. Hardly a cloud to be seen.

Freezing here and snow all night - a tiny bit left (on my bird table) in the centre of London. As a result (blanket of silence) I slept like a log.

It has just started to snow here, but very fine.

In fact I have just looked out the window again and it is stopping already.

So much for that.

Maybe tomorrow.

She was very disappointed when she saw only a few cms of snow !

This is the oddest "winter" in the garden I have ever had though, the dafodills are coming up, last years geraniums are still going strong, next to them ,and I have catkins on a tree, a budhlia in flower (just) and polyanthus flowering.
I like gardening, but I`m not an expert, but that`s all four seasons at once in one garden surely.
I`m not a strong believer in the global warming issue, I personally believe the planet has rotated on it`s access slightly which has affected the seasons globally by about six weeks.

The comforting thing is that none of this is unprecedented. Records show similar weird winters at various times over the last 150 years. Where I live we tend to get a "good" winter (lots of snow) about once every 15 years. We had several feet in 1979, then nothing much until 1994/5, so I'm guessing we're due another one around 2009/10. Our heaviest snowfalls were always around February/March. Very few white Decembers.
