What's your weather like 2026
Cold but dry and the wind has dropped so expecting a frost, 6 degrees but feels a lot cooler, should be sunny tomorrow.

Gardens and Pretty Places we have visited
I've been to Hever a few times I used to live in Kent before moving to France, but I've been more recently too. It's expensive but I'm an RHS member for visiting the gardens.

Field woodruff in my lawn
Is it not killed by normal weed and feed products? But I would agree in making the lawn less susceptible by improving the conditions for the grass over the weeds.
