We had no snow this morning but 15 miles west it was a different story,snow with solid ice on top. My late aunt's estate was treacherous. I walked down the street rather than risk driving down. When I came out of the house and walked down the drive I went a....over t.. smacked down on my arm. Hurt like hell at the time but didn't last long.

Reminds me of when I picked up the V8, same village as Russ so I'd arranged to go there for a spare key. Bitterly cold January, the estate Russ lives on was hard polished snow . . . . that was "interesting"!

I presume you checked there were no blunt, heavy objects within her arm's reach before you said that.

LOL You'd need a jack hammer to shift that stuff, More frustration wi that bleddy mobile phone After hours messing with it well mostly my missus cause I ain't got patience & getting rid of that Google error it now says the phone isn't compatible with the banking app!!! No reason whether it's the OS on this phone or the fact it's still on 3G it doesn't say Aaarrrggghhh. I need a drink & they wonder why a lot of people will have nowt to do with online banking.

My 75 is once again disappearing under a layer of snow which is currently coming down at a steady rate.

Cool

Very productive day in the sunshine, but bitterly cold wind. Managed to find the shop, drove past it twice. Bought my new grill element. Back into Saltash to send some club shop stuff off. Next stop was the chemist to collect my prescription.
Home for a coffee, and a biscuit.

Had a look at the grill but decided to ask Allen for help, he’ll be around tomorrow to have a look. So I gave the grill and oven a clean.
Currently building a Jaguar XJ220 from a defunct kit. What a pain to build. The instructions are best described as not being there.

Had another roast beef dinner with all the trimmings. Just chilling out with a large glass of spiced rum.

No snow is forecast for us but we might get a frost in the morning.
