 | Okay, this is getting ridiculous! I just had to give the back garden
its first grass cut of the year before we lose sight of the
trampoline. The damn stuff hasn't stopped growing this year.
Also, half the bushes in the back garden have buds on them, which is
way earlier than previous years, I'm sure. I know I'm on the south
coast of Kent, and things happen a bit earlier down here, but January
16th?!!

I have carnations and marigolds and primroses in flower, flower
buds on some roses and cowslips. and the weeds... triffids!!!!

I wonder how long before someone thinks about a remake of day of the
triffids?
It's bound to happen , and will probably be a "re-imagining" rather than
just a plain remake of the exact storyline.

Perish the though... and as you are at the moment someone that
thought about a remake ;-) so if it happens it'll be all your
fault :-))) what would you do or would you hope it never gets
remade :-))

It isn't unusual. I currently have in flower snowdrops, aconites, lamium,
periwinkle, winter jasmine, a bit of forsythia, anemones, alyssum saxatile
and even a ceanothus, plus a pink shrub whose name escapes me.
I also had a Greater Spotted Woodpecker in the garden today, which I have
*never* seen round here beefore. Way cool.
