My Russian neighbour is out de-icing his wife's car. He's wearing a thin jacket and T Shirt, (trousers, obv) bare feet & flip-flops

Go and help him with a kettle of boiling water!

With love from Zelenski!!

But he's a lovely chap who probably has friends at home who've been sent to Ukraine to fight a pointless war.... 😔

Deicing the car so his wife can go to work. That's chivalry.

Thankfully my neighbours don't judge me by my 'home' government's behaviour.

Or our families domestic arrangements.

There are some people who seem to specialise in looking after hedgehogs. Possibly your one may not hibernate but I am not an expert. We do have somebody here who looks after stray hogs so possibly there may be one near where you are.
Google may help or a local FB page.

Georgie our cat came from one. We took 3 little ones there last year. Each one turned up on a Friday . The centre told us when they had some kittens so it was a bit like an exchange although we had to pay for him .

None stop since 5 this morning , dog walked and feed then onto baking mince pies. Most of it went in the pies and only 1 or maybe 4 wont make it to the freezer. My mates in build radar will have kicked in so expecting him round for a pie or two.
Had some pastry left over so made Mrs 73 some marmite twists.
Now and doing my Christmas to do lists.

MrsF's been busy this morning - tidying her sewing stuff for Christmas, then she's around to her mum's house for more sorting/disposal of 'stuff'.

I'll pop out to get a sunday roast gong - thinking roast beef coated in honey and mustard, sprouts with bacon, cauliflower cheese, etc etc

It's all white mist and thick frost here. Not a breath of wind to move the leaves on the trees. From where I'm sitting it's impossible to tell whether the world has stopped completely.

I went out and Christened my Zelos in the snow , it must have been about 600 yards but it was fun.
Georgie is out playing in the snow . It's the first time he's seen it .

 

[Speicher]

There is about one inch of snow on the ground and it is still snowing.

Kizzy is distinctly unimpressed with the cold white stuff. I'm not sure if she remembers snow. Bob is out, but he is made of much sterner stuff.

I have retrieved the boxes of decorations from the attic. There are three 2d "trees", of different sizes. No, they did not cost two pence each, they hang on the wall, out of the way of inquisitive playful paws.

My Japanese family had a Very House Cat which used to spend all day plotting how to escape through the front door when someone came in, and when it finally made it would panic at the sight of trees, birds, telegraph poles and sky, and run back inside.

The next day it would start again. That cat was born with two brain cells and managed to mislay both of them.

Might try a walk around the block later

Snaining steadily on south coast.

Freezing fog here chez Casa Reynard, The world has largely disappeared, but the bits I can see around the house are covered in a thick layer of hoar frost.

Slept well, and have had a quiet morning doing not a lot. I feel really tired and stressy somehow. But I did empty the ashes from the grate into the galvanized bucket I keep outside. The ashes are far too hot to dump straight into the compost as I've been adding a bit of smokeless fuel in with the wood.

You know it's a cold one when Madam Lexi is still in bed - under the covers. Can't say I blame her, really...

Anyways, it is time for luncheon.

Another day, another 'nearly run in' truck 😂
