We had drizzle this morning. I still cycled for half an hour. Still 4c outside, but felt colder in the wind. Can’t wait to get the warmer temperatures. I need to separate the chillies into single pots. Will be grey with sunshine and eventually rain now and then over the coming days.

Ideas for shady front garden....
If you did decide to remove your grass areas @machtucker, Hakonechloa makes good ground cover. I have it planted under an Acer in my lower garden shown below in summer, autumn and winter.
