Oh but insect pests feed the birds and other insects, lol. It was only around 3.5C today, yesterday 1.5C, day before it nearly made it up to 0C!!! We haven't had very hard frosts though, the last lot before our recent 'mild' spell it got down to -6C.

Th frost and snow pics are very pretty though! :) It was said to be the coldest November day for 23 years yesterday, but our colder day was a couple of days ago.

I still have some Salvia gesneriifolia in flower, they prefer cool weather but haven't been knocked back that much by the frost. This one was taken on the 16th but there's some now looking as good!
