    Hi there changingme. Sorry to be a pain in the wotsit :o but can you let us know your total NSDs please. I think you are up to NSD #11 but I'm not 100% sure.
    It just makes it easier for us to do the updates. Thank you :)

    We dont have any snow (yet), down here in the south west (famous last words!!), but its definitely colder than it has been! I have just topped up both the Elec and Gas meters, hopefully that'll last a month instead of 3 weeks like it did over Christmas!

    Thanks Freeby for the updates and all the hard work you put into this thread, its really appreciated :)


    The snow is here :o but I'm in Scotland and a long way from you so I hope you miss it.

    Thank you for your thank you - lol x

  • We're still waiting for snow. It was due to fall last night and then again later today. It's making me a little unmotivated to don't he work I promised myself I would in case school is closed.
    Today will be a NSD taking me up to NSD #5 I think!

    Looking through the spyhole in my front door it looks as if there's some frost on car windows (OH reported them freezing up fairly early last night), but other than that there doesn't appear to be anything. Must be expecting snow though, as we were both sure the gritter did the main road last night (the flaashing orange lights come over my back wall and light up my living room - and the gritter's generally a lot slower than a break-down truck which is the other possibility).

    Things will get interesting if/when it starts to snow, as that's one driving condition I'll do as much as possible to avoid. So it looks as if I may be doing a mad scramble up and out on my working days - if I can be out within 30 minutes of my first alarm I should just about get to work on time walking the 3.7 miles !!! I need to make sure my walking gear's all to hand and that my backpack's ready to go (with foil blanket, first aid kit, high vis vest, drinking water etc)......
