The north wind......


....... is blowing something rotten, a proper May blow. 
We get this wind every few years and it burns the young growth and I fear for the new garden. 
It is not too cold but the fine sand and the salt in the wind do the damage. 
We will see.

We had a gale last week and I feared for my plants. Fortunately most seemed to survive but I'm glad I forestalled on putting out the flower tubs. It was a salutory warning that summer is not quite here - sigh.

The Northerly is still with us ... the windows are covered in sand ..... the peony foliage is wrecked and we have lit the fire. So much for summer .......
