I hope your delivery get through Holly and that your cold dosn't last to long , keep warm and have some nice hot soup :o)

We can't get out of the village, and it's our weekly shop day tomorrow - so we have fingers crossed as well.

Good luck with your delivery.

We're snowed in again, too - another foot overnight, eucalyps bowing to the ground. Oh well, we've got plenty of food, flour for bread,wood for the woodburner and food for the birds so we'll be warm and cosy here. The forecast looks pretty dire for the next week at least. I just hope the elderly are keeping warm and to hell with the bills!

Looks great as it first arrives and a bit of a novelty but ours still here 3 weeks later with little sign of any thaw.

Hope your deliveries come through .

Popped into our nearest Asda a couple of days ago and lots of shelves were empty because of panic buying! Hope you get your delivery OK, Holly. We've had snow last night and most of the day but it's not settling very much although bitter cold.

It reached the Isle of Wight too, big time. All the plants including an established Coronilla and Eucalyptus have been totally flattened under the heavy snow. We have had 30 or more cm here, All the schools are closed and I can't get into work. My garden is ruined :(

Hope your garden survives better than you dare think, Andrea. It is surprising how things survive in such extreme conditions. Fingers crossed for you.

They say it`s good to share Holly and we wouldn`t want you to miss out,lol. Hope your delivery get`s through and that you are feeling better soon. Nice photo`s......

There is no sign of a let up any where its just snow snow and more snow.As I dont drive it is a taxi for me to the shops.

Andrea, the snow may protect your more tender plants from the severe cold coming in from the east. I'll keep my fingers crossed with Gee.
