Now I know you should not mix weather with climate change but I have started to wonder if we are starting to see something seriously going wrong. It is now mid November when there should have been frosts and rain and yet we have had none. As I write this I can look outside to a blue sky and temperatures well into the teens centigrade. In the garden the trees and plants haven’t got a clue what is happening. The roses are still producing blooms as are many of the other plants. Trees, which by now should have shed there leaves still haven’t and toady I saw a number of leaf cutting bees buzzing around as through they have come out of hibernation.

Of course to put a little perspective to all this last year was one of the coldest we have had in a while so who knows what is happening to the weather. I just know I have not seen such a strange autumn in my life time. Goodness only knows what this winter will turn out like?
