Very cold this morning, mostly due to the strong wind. Best stay indoors where it's toasty.

Yep, lazy wind straight out the East.
Frosty but bright, I like this kind of weather, it's that constant rain that gets a bit too much for me at times.
Little fellow is outside and the big 'un is …. still asleep in 'is pit.
Just in case you have forgotten, it is Friday!
Feeling any better @My Old Landy ?

But it is good value for the 'fun' we 'ave!
Have you tried one? I find it difficult to form an opinion as it is neither one thing or the other - utility or luxury! I obviously was not in a position to 'try it out' and am just grateful I didn't get it dirty!!!! Rough and tumble and its 'posh' styling just don't seem to go together.How many times?!

Another cold one down here.
House temperature had dropped to a balmy 16 degrees overnight. Nothing compared to getting out of bed in the morning as a kid with ice on the inside of your window.
Thankfully there is no fresh fall of snow.
Herself will be going out to do some MIL shopping and to go to the butchers.
I will be taking a brisk walk on the treadmill later.
Have a great day

Guid morn
Another sub zero day ahead.
Jut off a zoom call, the company I work for, in Administration, has been bought by Harland and Wolff (Infrastrata Parent Company)
So we will have to stop telling Irish jokes in the canteen....to be sure to be sure !
So looks like my early retirement will have to wait.

To be honest, no, and I don't really want to. My 300tdi is about as basic as it gets and I like it that way.
I had the choice of mine or a TD5 on the day and test drove one after the other all afternoon trying to come to a decision. After returning in the TD5 a failed sensor in the wheel flashed up, that did it for me.
You can see all the pages of woe hereon full of electwickerry issues. I might be wet, I might be chilly, but I turn the key and it goes (an I luvs it).
An of course I can't afford a new one anyway

Re the "too cold to snow" thing.
My geography teacher must have been a tw@t then, as he said it was true.
But have to admit that ever since it has only seemed to snow when it is around 0 degrees. but if others know it can snow down to -15, well so be it.
Just checked it out and yep, as long as there is some moisture in the air and wind to blow it around, provided it is below about 2 deg, it can snow.
I get up.
I learn yet another lesson.
Every Ffin day is a schoolday!

can it technically snow at -10c? yes. is it likely to snow at -10 in England at sea level? Probably not
The coldest temp it can snow is somewhere around -20c, but the conditions have to be right, including ground level temp, cloud level temp, air pressure/altitude and humidity and probably lots of other things.it can snow at -10 and it can be too cold for snow at 0.. go figure
As it snows so rarely around here, (we have yet to have snow here this year), it really is all academic.i actually think its right and wrong

You should teach geography though!
I too was told that @Stanleysteamer whilst at school. These days, a lot of what I 'know', has been debunked by various sources
Still, I have never let the 'truth' get in the way of a good myth
