4 degrees here this evening, glad I moved my non-frost hardy plants into the shed yesterday. Lit the fire this evening, very cosy, but I never get any jobs done, as I love watching the flames flicker. Changing over to my Winter tyres on Friday, not cheap to get this done though, but necessary I feel. I will eventually go to all weather tyres when the Summer and Winter tyres need changing. No more birding after work in the evenings, now the clocks have changed, but a small possibility of seeing something good before work, if its on route between Scalloway and Lerwick!
