Lost me with the "British summer time day" Nik but I'm sure there is some obscure old country meaning you will no doubt enlighten me with... Is anyone concerned about the effect all your mild weather could have on the vegetation down there? When you have mild weather this time of year, does it not trick the trees and such into thinking it's spring and they start to bud out, only to be hit hard when winter does show up? I remember a year I was at a friends wedding on Vancouver Island in January and there were frozen rose buds everywhere. It had been mild and the roses started to bloom again and then got hit by frost. Just curious if that ever happens down there where you are?
