My road is on the flat but you can’t get to it without going up a hill. Having said that, when it snows here it usually disappears as fast as it came.
Fingers crossed your windows get done.7 -

I feel like I’ve spent all day cooking and washing pots. First the brownies, then lunch, then the dog’s chicken, then the butternut squash, chickpea and lime soup for next week’s lunches for me. Currently cooking steak in red wine sauce for Mr SA and Mediterranean cod for me. Will be glad to sit down later.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8
