Really freaking cold today here, with a delicious temperature of about 5 degrees at the moment. May or may not defrost later, particularly since my heater seems to be having a tantrum. Perhaps it will just be best to hide under a blanket for the duration.

Did the sensible thing and did a whole lot of gardening for about four hours out in the cold. Repotted stuff, made a new garden bed, discovered a few things (the gardens here never cease to amaze and have yielded such things as toy spanners, coins and bottles. Magic).

So at least the front area of the house is starting to look really good.

Now there's just the back yard to grapple with. Must work up an appropriate level of anger, frustration and resentment towards it though, before charging down there with pointy, sharp impliments :-p
