Weather Report..................

If it's any help ... ?
It's no great shakes here, either. Cloudy, NW blowing, struggling to keep warm indoors.
Roll on coffee and brandy time... At home!

That road picture from the Frog last year looks pretty hairy, Bill, but the Frog itself doesn't seem to have much of a covering on the ground.

I'm sure our new camper will get there. If it doesn't we'll just have to park up in it somewhere until the weather clears...

No, it doesn't help.

Go away you, or I'll have to shove you IN a brandy barrel, never mind drinking from one!

PS that smug filter of yours still needs servicing...

Kynance Cove, Cornwall was very attractive between the frequent showers today:






What a difference a couple of hundred miles south makes.

I love it when you talk naughty, Marie.
Smug filter? It's been put away ... Nothing much to be smug about... YET !
We managed to sit outside for ½ an hour, Dressed like Nanook of the North and Eskimo Nell. Clutching mugs of mulligatawny soup.
They breed 'em hardy, in Yorkshire.

Sleet / snow has turned into BIG SNOW, now really fed up

Snowing in Chorley

 

[Wooie1958]

Now stopped in Penwortham and thankfully it hasn`t stuck due to it being so bleeding wet from the rain / sleet / snow earlier.

In the city it was ok underfoot today. However out here in the sticks the earlier snow has frozen. It’s already -2 and forecast to get much lower with a few showers. ???

We're of the same mind, Lee.
What do you think... ?
Turned out a little warmer.. 10 degrees ..that's better. !

 

[2cv]

Nice and bright and sunny, but it’s -6 degrees! ???

 

[mariesnowgoose]

Very cold here and such a severe hoar frost overnight you would think it had snowed.

The Laird is near the Black Isle and reported temperatures of -7 earlier. Brrrr!

Wil venture out later this morning to a) visit a friend who had landed themselves in hospital and b) stock up on bird food - peanut butter, lard, cheap porridge oats, cheap raisons. Still got plenty of sunflower seeds & meal worms (Home Bargains, cheapest for miles). Poor little tings are wolfing the grub down just now. Neil moans that we can't afford to feed them, but that comment goes in one of my ears and straight out the other Don't buy peanuts, they're now an extortionate price.

 

[Pauljenny]

Peanuts ? Expensive? Somebody is stockpiling them.. ! Shame.. They used to cost.... Peanuts.
Better sort of day here, breezy, light cloud.
Managed breakfast outdoors..probably the only ones for miles around.
Coffee on the Mezzanine. It's 15½ degrees. Winter is anything below 16 degrees... So I'm allowed a brandy.
Getting loads of spare brownie points because we've builders coming tomorrow, so I've been moving furniture around.
Management is at her happiest when she's directing me heaving beds and wardrobes around. We're sleeping in the van for the foreseeable future.
