We had snow all night and more forecast during the week, so no gardening here for now. My preps will consist of sitting in a chair at the fire reading a good book

Melting in the sun now KC, but I think wed/thurs there's to be more. You need snow to kill off all the wee beasties :eek:0

What was the offer, Lyn? Wondering if I should check out my Co-Op..... Every increased possession loads us with a new weariness.

15% off Fairtrade goods until 10th March GQ, might be worth a look. I like their leaf tea anyway it's got a nice round flavour.0

<putter of footsteps as I'm a huge fan of Coop tea> In these trying times, 'keeping calm & carrying on' (a phrase devised for use in the event of actually being invaded - it's an alternative future that never happened) is helped with a nice brew!
Besides which stash #1 remains inaccessible & stash 2 had to be opened last weekend, so a resupply is in order...
