Hey everyone! Nice pics. A long day here as stated early clearing the car of snow and then OH dropped me into work (2 hours early - but saved me walking in). Roads pretty clear tonight. Had a lovely interlude in work with the coffee, biscuits and massages! The staff loved it! I had a mini massage of shoulders, neck and head - it was soooooo relaxing. My neck felt warm and soft all day. Hope you all doing ok.
It was lush. We have the ‘chill out’ sessions booked for every Friday until March so cue staff asking to work on Fridays! Anyone watching Six Nations? Wales game hotting up - probably because they used to the heavy rain!
No rugby for me. Springwatch while I cooked dinner and now that Arts and Crafts thing.
We enjoyed our lunch out. Same place as for OH's and my joint birthday lunch and still on winter menu so another chance to taste the am zing butternut squash soup with a scoop of espresso sorbet. mad, but it works. Then duck breast with the lovely blobs of concentrated citrus and finally a wicked chocolate fondant with melting pistachio sauce in the middle. Yum.
This vegan lark is all very well but by the time you've done all the processes and washed all the pots it's high maintenance on fuel and water and detergents and methane production just transfers from bovine to human form. Definitely not a win win tho interesting so will do some more but not every day. Apart from anything else, I like butter and fish and poultry and meat.
Home via the scenic route along the Atlantic coast because, for once, the sea is excited and throwing up big waves and white horses. Great to see but I suspect there'll have been huge shifts of sand along the beaches when it all calms down again. No snow but plenty of rain till mid afternoon. Sunny forecast for the weekend but next week not looking clever at all.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

Hi everyone. The TV is full of photos of UK snow reports this morning. It seems as though it’s the exact opposite to us with weather extremes. I hope this is not the next stage of global warming. I’m still fed up with weather probs and don’t have any every.
Im a tad annoyed ... I just caught my dressing gown sleeve on a tumbler in the bathroom and knocked it off the shelf ... and it’s cracked and made a small hole in the washbasin ... we’ll need a new one 🙄

Hi @Pat E. ... yes we’ve had a look at that ... the problem is there’s a long crack which runs right up to the rim ... and it’s enough of a crack to feel with a fingernail, so that makes the basin potentially quite unstable ... OH had plugged the hole temporarily with Sugru modelling paste but I’ll have to phone the plumber about a replacement ... it’s not an expensive designer one ... it probably won’t host enough to claim on the insurance.
