    Snowed all day yesterday but we got around fine. Me and Andy are hobbling a bit, both using walking sticks, me for my knees and Andy for his back, so we are slow but not letting it bother us too much. Hotel nice, Ibis at Wembley

    Just finished our breakfast/lunch at Frankie/bennys at O2 and going on Emirates cable car now :eek: :eek: :o

    You were only a few minutes from where I live then 3Dogs. I love the cable car, take visitors to it all the time.

    Glad you all enjoyed your trip to London, and well done for getting on the cable car, I'v only got to look at them at Matlock Bath and I start shaking seeing as I don't like hight's as well.

    I thought the same when I went to Matlock years ago boult, but I had to be brave for my grandson and despite holding on tight to the back of the seat the first time, I've loved it. Mind you, seen a good few people go green on the Emirates airline as they call it.

    Hope everyone is keeping warm

    You sound just like Kit with your marking ;). Well we will just have to arrange to meet up next time we are in London then moneypenny, if you want to that is

    Talking of the Emirates Airline, they had a big sign outside saying 'due to current hot weather, please make sure that you take bottled water on cable car' :eek: :eek: it was -2 degrees :rotfl:

    I've not been up to much today, just had my normal lie in and then walked the dogs in the snow, which they loved. We had about an inch of snow overnight but thawing during day. Hope it doesn't freeze tonight, though I think we are actually forecast rain overnight

    It is really bad up in North East but has been thawing there today too. Mam doing ok and smiling again after a few groans days

    Thanks sweeties. It really is amazing how much better she is down in the normal care home section instead of in the End of Life unit she was in for 2years. They definitely stimulate their residents down there and, well, just seem to care more :o

    How is the weather round your way Beanie, and taxi, and how are you coping with it?

    A fair wee amount of snow up here 3dogs.
    Wish it would go away as It really means I am confined to barracks & I am starting to get bored.
    Have made a start though on the dreaded paperwork.Sigh.

    I hope it starts to thaw for you soon then beanie, so you can get out safely. Think it is rain forecast now, with a rise in temperature, hopefully for you too
