Lol, anything is possible in Tassie ;D.
Yesterday I was in a T-shirt, and today I'm in a jacket.

Not likely to be anymore frosts but like I said it is possible.

Don't rub it in Obbie  ;D
It is freezing here, the wind has blown off a lot of the apples and pears.   We are starting to get some zuchinni, have peas, broad beans and carrots.  I noticed there is a good crop of walnuts and there is actually some mulberris on the tree.  I just might get to try a mulberry before I die.  DH informs me there was a lot on last year and they all fell off, oh well, keeping my fingers crossed.
