Ray says it didn't go very low here but 'just enough'. We now have
frog spawn in a second pond so will have to investigate the third one

Lovely morning on Sherborne Golf Course.... once the fog had lifted!
Frosty in garden early on but glorious now.

We had a frost this morning, I was surprised when I went to get in the car
to find the windscreen was covered in it.
