Gardeners are nearly as obsessed as farmers by the weather and as a nation we are always talking about the weather. Its fascination stems from the unpredictable nature of our weather. We are currently enjoying an unseasonable hot dry sunny spell with temperatures touching the low 20C. We've had little rain and prolonged sun lulling us into a, possible false (time will tell,) sense of security and all manner of plants are going in the veg plot and growing fast. 

Lift a plant out of a pot and the soil is really warm; we could have a really good growing season. Stable though this warm spell has been, and very welcome, we cannot predict what the weather will be like this time next week, and that's the fascination. 

Easter weekend looks great for gardening but also for relaxing and enjoying the garden.
