Next door just came round. Had her dog put to sleep this afternoon. I have a good shoulder to cry on The antics of my dog and cat trying to get best position in front of fire amused her. Cat won! Cat always wins
Snow pics good Becks, there's only a wee bit left around here in the cold spots. Gone below freezing again out there now. Only reached 1-2C best I think. I went down to compost bin earlier, but lid frozen on solid! Shall attack tomorrow when wearing older clothes.
Need to watch the forecasts carefully. OH wasnt going to be able to leave work until late on Friday, but it may be safer for him to stay over there for the w/end after all. Thank goodness for the little house & he's got a Lidl & a Morrisons all within easy walking distance, so he wont starve.
Digi box had another wobbly & refused to 'tape' something, but if you try the +1 set up it says already has taped it, so wont respond to new request! Tomorrow shall have tv on quietly & manually over-ride things she says........
Have had a nice lunch out with friend at GC. The roof there was leaking in various places & it started just above our table! Staff grabbed a spare bucket & we shifted along.
Came back via B&Q & they have the new stocks of compost now. Got 2 lots of seed & 1 of MP to use. All in porch to keep warm(er) until I need. Seed order to be decided anyway. J.
Sympathy to your friend--7 is very young,unless it's one of the massive breeds--why I would never have one--too heartbreaking.
Grey here and about +2 at 9:30--fire on. My 2 dogs, Blue and Inka, have been invited to join a virtual dog pack that travels around looking for adventures. Should be fun.
Don't envy you your snow--stay warm and safe, everyone!

I think peeps we have to accept will all see snow on Friday-that means we can have a day off and play all day
I have got those things to go on the bottom of shoes-want to try them out
-not looking forward to the early morning garden trek
Sad about the dog
Yep - she was only 7 - seems young in doggy lives.
Yes.
Fish for tea
Not sure what we're having yet. Waiting for madam to decide.
That is young for dog yrs Bjay. Shame.
I've got some snow grippers, but since am terrified of slipping, not sure will even try them out.
I've still to actually see a forecast!
Daughter having the rest of cauli/macaroni cheese & me probably beans on toast! Lunch out does tend to fill you up.
