glad i dont have to contend with snow etc, unless of course its tomorrow in which case DH is dragging me along to the job centre for his sign on, so that i get out of the house. i wouldnt mind so much but i havent got any shoes suitable for the weather, and my feet got soaked earlier....Wealth is not measured by currency0

Morning all.
The ice is not as much fun as the snow was. I'm still keeping my hopes up that Pen Y Fan will be good at the weekend. BF might of managed to borrow couple of snowboards for us, which would be cool. I'm a skiier though, never been on a board, but hey - how hard can it be?

Snowboarding sounds like fun!
HI CAFC - how is your OH's job hunt going? Is there much work up there? Have decided whether you will work before the baby. It might be good to get something part-time as you have a bit of a way to go yet. I think I would be driven mad waiting for the baby to arrive if I didn't have work keeping me active.Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

I am in Reading now. The ice is bad but the snow has stopped.The snow is still very deep and cars are still blocked in. OH was able to make it to work but we live at the top of a hill that hasn't been gritted so I told him to leave early because he has a 30/40 min walk and it could be treacherous.
How are things over your way?Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Boring now. Main roads are clear, side streets icy and pavements icy. No snow left.
