Good Morning
No!Did you get what you wished for?
Late running, although I'm surprised they're running at all down south.Good Morning
No more yet!Good morning everyone. Another bitterly cold night, but no more snow thank goodness.
Has it started yet? I know I'm a few minutes early, but you never know.The thaw starts today. About 11 o'clock this morning, in fact. Snow should be all gone by tomorrow evening. I'll finally be able to get out to the builder's merchant.
At least the thought was there. There's many who wouldn't.Morning all
A rough snow ploughed single track outside to civilisation
Ah, it's all been some fun.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs M asked is there anyone who might need some shopping in our immediate area, I reminded her we are the oldies..
On return, we met a neighbour who said 'I'd have got you to pick up milk for me', 'It's only 15 min walk', ' F that, I'm not going out in that'
Stay warm, stay safe...
......Has it started yet? I know I'm a few minutes early, but you never know.....
Then the big freeze from the West.Yep. The first non-4 wheel drives got through this morning, and I made a trip to town to the builder's merchant. Dicey on the lane still, but do-able. It's melting fairly well now.
Hope you closed the gate, don't want the snow to get out.View attachment 398348

Cracking couple of miles covered, fun. Virgin snow the whole way

I'm not putting the crampons and ice axe back into storage just yet. They remain ready for use, along with the boots(which have the crampons attached), waterproofs, survival bag, heat pads and self heating canned food.
With a bit of luckCome the revolution. @classic33 will be ready.
