You realize don't you Angie, that tomorrow when the heron drops by he'll be at the back door wanting coffee to go with his fish?

Hope you weren't shopping at Albany yesterday Anthony.

No, the tornado missed us. In fact, two people emailed about it me from the UK. They knew more than I did. My brother has just sent me the Youtube clip:

Argh; frosts! Ranzanias and Smilacinas have all been frosted, as usual...

Hope he doesn't call back today, out for lunch with some SRGC friends so won't be able to chase him of this time. Husband got home last night and asked what was for tea, I said fish

I believe heron was a very desirable dish on middle ages tables.

You need a big oven to fit the legs in, though, don't you?

Do you have frost? I haven't had below 3C since March! Are you far inland maybe?

...but you're in the tropics, Rogaland is much milder than Agder even at the coast. I'm 25 km straight north of Mandal, borderline H2.

There has been  frost the last four nights. Last night it was -6.4 degrees Celsius, and it will be frost in the night too.  Many plants  are damaged.
We had very warm weather over Easter, and many plants begun grow too fast.

[Maggi Young]

I'm sorry to hear of those frosts. It is what we have been fearing, with the amount of fine weather we have had here, but so far we have been lucky.   So far.........

[angie]

Maggi you are lucky. Just shows the difference in only a few miles. I had a walk around my garden this evening and there has been a  bit of damage to my plants. It's so annoying, things were just starting to look good. Oh well we can't have everything and I do enjoy having the sunny days.

Ulla, sorry to hear about your losses. Anything killed?

You are in the inland from Gøteborg then? Seems you have reasonable early springs though. Last year we had two frosty nights in May but so far none and the weather forecasts seem to be good in the next 10 days. Actually it is starting to get dry here. We had a shower with hail yesterday! A few tulips were destroyed but nothing serious so the water was welcome. Maybe we get showers tomorrow too - and I look forward to it
