Snow Damage

Last night saw heavy snow, and it kept snowing all morning. We've had about 8-9 inches, and there are drifts up to three feet deep. We've worked from home, as the roads aren't safe, and it's been a bit cold!

Sadly, the daffodils are all looking rather sad: time will tell, but I think those that had flowers will probably be squashed, and wasted. We might be able to cut some and bring them in, but on the whole I think the display will be sadly diminished this year. Worse, the weight of snow has caused the bird netting on the fruit cages to tear over the posts, so we'll have a lot of repair work ahead of us in the next few weeks.

A weather blip we could have really done without!
