Just under 2.5 hours riding this morning. Temps ranged from -2C to 2C with sheet ice in places. Nice in the sun.

The sun was shining. Mrs O said “let’s go out for a walk. The fresh air will do us good”, she said…

I think I have left it too late buying our holiday Canadian $ the £ is going down the plug hole !
Bit surreal this morning as a swarm of orange high visibility top and bottom clad people appeared against all the whiteness. Then they started moving the black wheelie bins and I realised a disaster movie was not being filmed.
Retrieved the bin and noticed the car, aside from the rear window had defrosted, so made use of it for some shopping having done none since Saturday. Sainsbury's and Waitrose car parks were pretty ice clad, the latter being the worse. Neither had a bag of 5 oranges so to Asda which was relatively ice free helped by the undercover car park.

After a morning of home work and a trip to our local Tescos. I'd had enough of being stuck in side so with a bit of planning as which shops I needed to call at. It was on with the yaktrax's and off into town on a steady walk. Good job I did as the large part of pavements are a no go with some help. Once in town it was not bad and a handy low wall out side the shops. So getting in and out of my yaktrax's was simple enough

It's been a mostly sunny and very chilly day here chez Casa Reynard.
Slept OK-ish. Spent the morning largely puttering about in the kitchen. This included preparing fruit for a small batch of marmalade. I had a lemon in the fridge that I'd zested for the two lots of salmon mousse, but didn't need for anything else. So I chopped that up, and added some tangerines into the mix. The fruit is soaking in just enough water to cover. I shall cook it later.
A quick luncheon of salmon mousse on toast, some fruit and a
Then it was wrap up warm (I looked like Bibendum!), take the mower, trailer and can of two-stroke fuel and off I went lumberjilling. I'm still clearing up that downed ash tree I've already had two trailer loads of wood from. I was cutting through wood that was wider than the bar of my chainsaw (eek!) and needed two tanks of fuel to fill the trailer. It's not just cutting off slices from the trunk, it's also cutting those slices either in the halves or quarters, because they are waaaaaay too big to split. Though unlike the smaller branches, this is actually very good quality wood. So I had a damn good two-hour workout.
One slice I kept to use as a new chopping block, as the old one was getting very split and frayed. The old block has been cut up and is now currently keeping me nice and warm.
Re-stocked all the wood in the house.
Have had a lovely and a cranberry & pumpkin seed flapjack.
