Back again. Glad most of us all nice & snug inside.
OH had more snow his end too, so he walked to work! Probably safer than driving with thiose hills around there though.
My outing tomorrow has been cancelled, so daughter doesnt have to move her car after all. She could take me to my scan on Wed as we're going out for meal afterwards anyway. Ah, daughter says doesnt know way- come on she's been there before. Ok my car wont be iced up etc. So she'll still have to move hers out of way or nobody going anywhere! I could drive hers, but she wouldnt be a happy bunny.
After investigating freezer decided to defrost it after all. So 3 cool boxes/bags outside back door! Use one of those sprays which saves the pan of hot water & a lot of effort. Would also highly recommend those freezer liners that you can buy.
Now have bowl of breadcrumbs waiting for birds next snack! Found some Xmas goodies too- hmm, dare I? J.
Those lupins are well buried now Gary! I shook all the snow off the bamboo yesterday, all covered again now and it is still snowing, after I cleared the car as well! We had about 3 inches.
Finally back. Feel as though I have been away. head aching stress i guess. Daughter and Partner at midnight were told plane was cancelled ( staff would have had to be paid overtime) But they were then taxied to a hotel and booked on first plane this morning. We didn't leave until they said they were boarding and as we arrived at arrivals their plane arrived (Phew) D now on her way to work absoltely shattered, partner has gone off to investigate new CH boiler that was being installed this weekend Thoughts of Jo there
No snow in Edinburgh and they were amazed at how much here. Loads of european flights cancelled as well
No sure what sort of caff you are running in that gaff in Cannock Chase-but OK will settle for coffee-in a cup mind- not a mug- I am not a pleb-and biscuits on a plate or there will be no tip
Now awiting on return call from plumbing/heating co. 'We assumed job complete, hence the invoice', says lady. Nooo, still need electrics to fan doing & some special loft tile I think. Plus the s*****g boiler!
This is going to run & run I think. Not convenient for us/me until mid Feb what with all the appointments have. Mind you that should suit them, as always booking a couple of weeks ahead for jobs.
Freezer dripping nicely. Nearly done, then to clean it & put back onto fast freeze. Have advised daughter thinks about getting a frost free one! 2 friends swear by them. J.

This is a bamboo flattened by snow (not particularly pretty)...
Lupins update...
This is the snowy eagle, Aquila niveo...
Nice pics Gary.
We have sun of a sort, trying at the mo. It's shining through falling snow! J.
Kate-no-the seed green light is still on amber warning- and keeps going back to red
I am so happy about the freezer Jo-have been worrying-can't keep up
Becks-nice cup of OXO please-got any biccys?
OXO??? I don't think so. You can have tea or coffee. And yes, chocolate digestives or cadbury's mini fingers.

WE just want to go back to bed
Oh and it's trying to snoe again,
Well done Kate, a day off
Oh and those irises really made me smile, a taster of spring.
