Snow in November 2010

Sunday, November 28th, 2010

Snow has certainly come early this year to the Hamlet.

It started snowing on Wednesday 24th November 2010 and its not stopped, it’s a good job that the groceries were delivered today! It’s not looking likely that the snow will stop before the end of the week. So the car’s going no-where.

Here’s a little video clip of the snow covered garden. (Available in HD also!)

The birds in the background have not been added to the video track, thats the number of birds feeding in the garden, if you look towards the end of the garden. Don’t forget to feed the birds this winter!

Garden Casaulty of the Winter Frosts

Monday, April 12th, 2010

Yesterday we dug out a casualty of the hard winter frosts we had, where the ground remained frosted for many weeks, lots of garden Hebe’s around this area have died in the area due to the hard winter frosts. Lindsey was thinking of replacing it anyway, because it had grown too large and straggly.

Dead Hebe, frost damage
