  Just back from the diy store. OH convinced it would be a good idea to pop out for some paint. I knew he had an anterior motive of popping in to Pret at the motorway services next door. I did remind him that it is a) Saturday b) the beginning of half term, and c) lunchtime, but he thought we might as well look in. Just as I suspected, it was total chaos, made worse by the big sections of parking blocked off to install loads of new Tesla chargers. Didn’t stop, and even struggled to find the way out. I suppose on the plus side, we did get the paint, and now have a very good appetite for lunch at home.

  Are people really so stupid that the dangers of this don’t occur to them?

  With organisers worried about frostbite during Saturday’s race, it was delayed by an hour and shortened by 20km.

  Showoff 
  
  

  
  

  If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

  Blo**dy wind I'm sick of it. Hasn't stopped for almost a week now. Even the cat wont go out.

  Wind finally easing here (Gloucestershire).  Considerably reduced even from earlier this morning.

  I'll join you Kili. I detest the wind, rather have snow any day and I hate that slightly less.
