Yip, frost lying in the shadows down at the farm where the horses are. i'm just back in to the house for a heat. Thankfully rugged up my old girl a bit more last night after reading the forecast. I could have been doing with your ear warmers Olly!

yup, light grass frost here in Devon. On a north facing slope, but still. Looks like winter may be early this year...
