Winter has arrived early with a sharp frost in the morning, the sun then broke through and made a good but cold afternoon. I helped Denis strip out the garden walls and take down all the hanging baskets and generally tidy up the garden for the winter, we just need to plant some winter flowering plants in the next few days.
