A breezy, overcast start. O'night low was 6 degrees [6 /7 just now at approx. 8.25am] To be fairly dry this morning, and then the rain/wind back...
I used to leave runners in small pots outside over winter without any problem. Even if they looked dead, they always came back no matter what the...
This is the only photo I have of the robin where you can see his single leg.[ATTACH] This is him at the back door for his food, but you can't...
That's me told then! I'd only ever heard it in connection to football pundits, or probably comedians using it in their p*ss takes of commentators....
I think many Scandinavian countries celebrate/exchange gifts on Ch'mas Eve rather than Ch/mas Day itself. Spain too - although that might be...
I think it's one of those dumb football terms @pete. It's crossed over into 'daily speak' in recent years, on the radio and TV. I presume it just...
A clear start, but some clouds coming in. O'night low of 2 degrees, with some ice [3 degrees just now at approx. 8.30am] with a predicted high of...
Lovely pix @Will Hay . I also had a little one legged robin a few years ago. One day I was kneeling down at a border, and I became aware of...
Yes - I agree @pete, but that company doesn't state that anywhere, or they certainly didn't when I had insurance with them.
One of my favourite things to see when out and about. We have plenty of lichen around here. As @Sheal says, it can come in many forms and hangs...
They're very cute @Liriodendron. I always say hello to the ones in Glen Fyne, or at the reservoir at the end of Glen Lyon, when I'm there for a...
The irony of the MoneySavingExpert site @shiney. I contacted them at the time and pointed them in the direction of that F'book page, because they...
The slugs hide in them even when there's no soil :frown: I often find pots get stuck together - any type of pot, but I usually twist them against...
I've just read your post @hailbopp and it gave me serious deja vu. I looked them up because I was fairly sure who that company was connected to,...
Christmas day wasn't even a holiday in Scotland when my Mum was young. Her parents were married on Christmas day. I remember those paper chains...
We don't get jays around here, although I don't know the reason for that, as they're quite common in many other parts of Scotland. After a break,...
Cloudy start, but frosty too. O'night low was minus 1 degree [almost 1 degree just now at approx. 8.00am] with a predicted high of about 5 or 6...
I agree - if you never get cold enough for frosts, the new growth would be fine over winter anyway. It can be difficult if you try to cut back in...
I think it's far too easy for people to forget that it isn't a wonderful, joyous time of year for everyone @On the Levels . I hope you can manage...
A wet start here, but at least the wind's dropped now. O'night low of 4 degrees [4 just now at approx. 8.05am] with a predicted high of not much...
