Not yet, we got the keys on 27th October, going to get everything we need doing first before we move in.

Hi Hugo, the tree is not very big at the moment, it's a big garden  an old Edwardian house in Rhos on Sea, we are not moving in yet until various jobs have been done inside. Pic shots part of the back garden.
Congratulations on your new house, ME!  $good$

They are all nicely coloured Hollins, we have only one left with any leaves on and the display this year wasn't as good as last year.
Because of work going on in my house I'm behind with planting Daffodils and when I went to Talgoed Nursery the other day all the bulbs had gone.       :(
They had nice displays of indoor Cyclamen so I came away with two of them

The world has gone mad. This was flowering this morning in a wild area in Llanrhos cemetery.

There is a variety of daffodil that does flower before Christmas, I don't know if it's that one though!

Nature is certainly being fooled by the "new" seasons.

For the last three January's we have had a walk along the River Dwyfor to see the Snowdrops but this year they seemed a bit later than usual but there are thousands of them along the banks of the river.
In about a week or two they should be at their best

The warm sunshine yesterday has helped to bring out the Crocus in the garden

Bodnant's laburnum arch was decidedly empty today !!!

... and the pond at the Far End frozen over (well, it was once known as the Skating Pond)

I’ll probably start the peppers and aubergines off in the heated propagator in the porch next week.

Just done my outside good deed for the day. Thawed out the “fountain” part of a small pebble pond.  It’s quite a popular source of water with the small birds that visit the garden.
