babysham, Im also in Lancashire and I think its been particularly wet this winter

Im wondering whether Spring is coming at all. In October I planted 200 daffodil and narcissus bulbs and 50 snowdrop bulbs and Ive had a grand total of 3 teeny narcissi and one lonely snowdrop in flower...and they are in a raised bed. The other poor bulbs have rotted in the sodden ground.
OH and I worked out that we have had 9 horseshoes sucked off in the mud since Nov 1st....thinking of starting a scrap metal yard when I find them all
