We were having a few drinks with our neighbours last night. Once again we were told how lucky we are to be having a winter like this... thats what everyone said last year.
Two days ago they had the warmest Jan. 5th on record nearly plus 13, beach weather for Leeds.
Today is cooler but still mild, and as I look out of the window a troop of squirrels is munching on the heaps of maple seeds I swept onto the garden in December( a very sucessful recycling measure). We have some asparagus in the front garden that has sprouted up again and it looks like the snow shovel is redundant.
It`s so mild that my new bird feeder has been largely ignored by the fantastic array of finches the packaging promised, how we cheered when it looks like it actually does keep the squirrels out, although should the feet of snow return they may band together and start building seige engies..............

squirles can't build seige engines! where would they source tallow to grease the skids to move it into place?
I think they have some kind of agreement with the bees, or something
