Just read your diary from the 26th. I’m sorry to read about your friend and Step Father-in-Law, life is cruel.We had a dusting of snow to wake up to here but just been hammering it down with rain for the most part.
On a more positive note, you made me remember how nice it is around the Chatsworth Estate, beautiful part of the world. My old friend / !!!!!! stalker ha is from up that way, used to go driving around there so avoid crossing the !!!!!! county border these days haha.1 -

We had very heavy rain overnight as well which has not helped. The little watercourse in the field where we live had burst it's banks this morning which is unusual. Only seen it one other time in the almost six years we have lived there.
Hoping that the town centre avoids flooding this time. They seem to be getting flooded most winters1 -
A slightly better drive into work today. No snow just icy roads to contend with instead. Let's see how many people can make it to work today. No doubt the usual suspects will use it as another excuse!
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are from stores today. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is salmon with noodles and stir fried vegetables.
Tonight's jobs are:- walking the dog
- load of washing
