Just had a look on the Met office site & it's forecast for here too starting Sunday night & into Monday with yellow & amber warnings out
There are signs of thawing here, the snow on the lawns is slowly going but the service road out back & side streets are still packed solid ice.


I tried to wrap the electric cabling up from my old charger in the garage but it's still stiff as a pole.

The water butts on the greenhouses are still frozen I think it was a waste of time trying to get a head start with some seedlings, they're toast & the compost they're in is frozen as hard as concrete despite putting them in polystyrene boxes wrapped in bubble wrap


Veggie soup & Smoked haddock with mash & broccoli for tea tonight.

Most of the snow melted here today but still some small evidence remains here and there. Feels cold enough for more of the same though I believe the forecast is for wind and rain. Had to put the fire and the heating on tonight and will shortly be switching on the electric blanket on the bed to get the chill off it before I retire for the night. Not sure why they call it a blanket as it's actually a heater-pad/mat which sits on the mattress under the bed sheet and the mattress protector. Bought it a few years ago but only started to use it in the last year or so and wish I had bought and used it sooner as I think it is great for the job.

Morning Ian and all.

Much warmer here than of late. Forecast is for some pretty windy conditions later today.
The mercury is set to hit double figures though, so that's good
