I was moving a large pot to another spot prior to planting Ice Follies Daffodils and Scilla Campanulata - mixed colors, when horrors I saw a very large slug! We have never had slugs here before which I attributed to the harsh weather. I will now be looking for them.

But I see they're warning for more floods in Southern England. We have plenty of animals here on the west coast of Sweden, I saw a moose went through our garden last weekend, they can be a real nuisance if they take a fancy to one of your trees, there won't be much left. We have deer, badgers squirrels, water rats, salamanders,snakes, frogs, toads you name it! Slugs and deer cause us most grief. This year we've had a fox digging around in our vegetables. Gardening up here has it's ups and downs, and animals are all part of the package. /Neil
