Hello folks - yes cousins all over the tv today - they're usually quite a private family, but they sold the story to get the helicopter to go and find the children's father who was hiking in the bush. I don't blame them, but there are some people who are raising eyebrows apparently - as far as I'm concerned those children needed their Daddy - privacy be bu$$ered (s'cuse my language).
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Hello again--back from shopping--good thing I didn't need much, as I had to lug it all up the hill. The road is mostly washed out in yesterday's deluge---I'm surprised I was able to get down. Hopefully they will be able to fix it when it dies out in the next few days. They did come and look at it. But I'll be fine until then.
Hi, Chris--did love Downton!--so glad it's back. It's been rainy here--especially yesterday--but above freezing and no snow yet. Shoud dry out in the next couple of days, and hopefully then they can fix the road. Could be worse!
Cool tip for parents on Sky News: if you have kids and hear ice-cream van chimes, tell the kids that they sound the chimes to tell people that the van has run out of ice-cream.

Hi Inka,
Sounds as if you have been having some rotten weather too.
Think everyone is having an early night this side of the Atlantic
Did you enjoy Downton? we have got a new series here, called Mr Selfridge, looks quite promising.
Enjoy you day, I'm now off to bed. Goodnight peeps.
Chris.

Morning forkers,

Also this morning's front page headline in the Mirror (3 Weeks of Snow):

The Express front page (predictable): Snow to Criple Britain.
Have been waiting for the opportunity to use my leaf blower to clear some snow.
Just been out to feed the birds, and it didn't seem too bad outside. It's misty, so no sign of sun. A cold day ahead (but dry and above freezing).
Morning all.
No fog today but a bit on the chilly side.
I've been reading about this cold snap that's coming. Quite interesting. It's caused by a rare phenomenon called SSW - Sudden stratospheric warming.

I have no idea whether or not this will work . It's supposed to be a short video explaining what happens.
Lets see.
