    Enjoy the new jacket :)

    Our snow is lying, but its pretty thin. Temp not rising above freezing today, so I think it will turn to ice, which is very "oops".

    Snow up here wasn't really remarkable in depth, a bit slushy this morning, but the whole road was ice when I got in tonight. Just kept my feet beneath me, and stepped carefully. Finding out how hard the road is using the precision instrument that is my backside is *not* how I roll...

    Just think, you're probably an order of magnitude better at walking in the snow than those within the M25 "ring" are at driving in it... :p

    We didn't get any snow at all despite being the severe weather warnings. It just rained. Hope all is ok today and the ground is a bit more Beanie-friendly underfoot.

    Hi Beanie - Just been having a catch-up as I've not ventured on here since September :eek: Life has been a mad roller-coaster and I've had very little time - felt like a swan paddling away like mad to keep life plodding on but not looking graceful like a swan - more like a headless chicken to be honest :p

    WOW you have done so much - had housie jobs done which I know were really getting you down, mended fences in the garden and with family members by the sound of it, treated yourself to some lovely new warm clothes and got down to the seventeenses.... well done that lady :T:beer: :money: :T :)

    Hoping to get on here more often again and not leave it so long :money: need to get my cash sorted once and for all this year
    January spends - £587.58
