Morning all. OH says there is proper snow in South Norfolk too! There is a glimpse of sunshine here in Dordogne at the moment. I'd better not waste it and get outside to finish sweeping up those leaves I'd started the other day and weed the groundsel out of the troughs around the pool. It's cold though.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Snow here too, although more like dandruff at the moment. Wine delivery today, so hope that gets through. So far it is the only thing we have planned for Christmas, although I have had a mince pie for breakfast.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Hello everybody --no snow here just cold and damp and grey although at least for now seems a bit of a break in the rain...hope the blood tests are ok @Dovefromabove . @Pat E that looks like some storm to take that right down . Have a good day all, I'm thinking all these animals that hibernate have the right idea, duvet and hot water bottle sounds very appealing !
Grey here and dull but calmer than last night when the winds got up again and we had heavy rain followed by showers all night. Bit noisy but quiet now. More pottering indoors then for me apart from OH taking Sally for her MOT and me having to fetch him back so he doesn't sit around for 2 hours twiddling his thumbs.
We had a similar tree disaster in storm Alew when we lost our barn roof @Pat E but it just missed the wires so no power cuts. It did block our road tho so framer Luc went and dealt with it. Lovely big oak the buzzards liked as an observation post between thermal soaring.
Cosmos is doing well thank @WonkyWomble. 5 more days of meds to be sure.
Don't drink it all at once @punkdoc ! I can feel my teeth dissolving at the thought of mince pie for breakfast.
Hope the bloods are OK @Dovefromabove . Must be time for mine to be checked but it can wait a while till other stuff is sorted.
Stay warm and dry everyone, and safe too.
