I noticed on my plot today that some plot holders have already got buds on their daffodils.

Also my broad beans are showing above the soil! Yeeeeeehhhhh!!!

I've got a garden full of snowdrops! Does that mean spring or winter?

You're not wrong.

The more maritime your location, the more this is the case.

In all honesty, I don't think so Aunty. If you consider that we are still coming out of the most recent ice age the earth is bound to heat up and it will cool down again in the future.

Without opening an entire debate on whether we're changing the planet or not, change happens and has done throughout the life of the planet so don't sweat yourself over it... just do your bit to save energy and we'll all be fine!

I noticed today that all the gorse is in flower, and there are roses in some gardens which have flowered all winter long. I haven't seen an icicle in years.
