Well what a strange night and day we are having/had. I blame the wife myself. Yesterday she was out in the garden in the sunshine 15dgs watering and looking at some rather dubious clouds that were skirting the valley whilst mumbling we need some rain get over here……
Later on the drumming of a good rain storm could be heard she had got her way BUT when I got up this morning SNOW! SNOW! The forest looked really wintry with its light dusting of snow maybe not a lot, but there it was. A bleary eyed bod got out of bed saying your daft “where’s the snow” wandered to the front door opened it looked outside closed it came back to bed snuggled down saying “yep that’s snow”! Not the normal response and no dash for the camera, but still it was around 4am…..
True to form she who watches the weather – did not see this coming – was out before brekky getting the logs and starting wood in – thinks saws, axes and me don’t go well together – wonder why? any way words of “we will not be cold” were heard and she was enjoying herself so I made the tea and got brekky. We are having a curry for dinner the pan is on the fire and we are cosy and warm not bad. Just going to see what the weather is going to do tomorrow then a glass dinner and Rugby. Ohhh dont like the look of this more snow could be on way guess who’s off to the wood pile, girl scout or what…..
It may not look like much to you but believe me this is an event. Usually when it snows no matter how deep its gone by midday so to us its something.
Keep warm and safe everyone, “Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, and since we’ve no place to go, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow” Keep warm peeps
