A mild one here last night - just enough to whiten the grass.  But the
Dahlias are still going!

Hard enough to kill the leaves on my Brugmansia, here.  I had forgotten
to bring it in, but am not terribly fond of it, anyway.  It's only an
arborea.

I 'nearly' didn't bother to put the car in the garage last night, but
remembered I had a Business Meeting early this morning so did put it away
:-))

6.15 when I left for the meeting, car snug in the garage, the rest, white
with frost.

When I returned at around 9.00 my neighbour was scraping the frost off her
car.

In reply to 'Mike' (3d&6d@woolies.com) who wrote this in

I started the engine, turned on the defrost buttons, went back inside and
finished yesterday's Su Doku and had another cuppa. When I came out, the ice
had gone :-)

Should I feel just a teensy bit guilty aboout environmental issues?

No but I would feel a bit edgy about someone nicking the car!!
:)

Volvo's have the option, probably best left to the Swedes which can
automatically turn your car heater on at a given time so you can return
to it nice and warm :)
