If you have a light leak on certain types of plant it can screw up the flower cycle and cause in severe cases the female plants to throw out the odd male flower.

bit nippy at the moment,went to an arms fair in kempton park earlier.

Two mates of  mine retired to the sun and after a few years returned to the UK. They genuinely missed the changing seasons.

Lots of people fall in love with a place on holiday. But living somewhere hot full time is entirely different from the holiday experience.

I have lived in the tropics, and severe cold, I wouldn't mind a bit of sun on a day like today

I have a mate with an Australian mother, he went out there to live some years ago, but like your mates he missed the seasons and returned after two years says he will only be returning to pick up his inheritance grew to hate the place
