Our neighbours all report seeing long tailed tits regularly in their gardens but they seem to avoid our feeders (too full of hungry sparrows?) so it was very pleasing to see one (on the frozen apple tree) for the first time today.
two suggested universal laws of nature:-
1. Buy any garden furniture or barbecue equipment after 1st March and it will rain incessantly until September.
2. Put some fertiliser and weed killer on a grass lawn and it will not rain again for several months.
Clearly these two laws must interact, and this would suggest that you should only buy garden furniture a day or so after fertilising the lawn, or conversely fertilising the lawn several hours after buying garden furniture. This may be one of those higher dimensional problems with a solution in an alternative universe.

An English version of Murphy's Law? ;)
