We didn't get it too badly last month. Looks like it's come back for another go :lol:

It's so beautiful today!

Glorious sunshine on the white mountains. I'm having an "I can't believe I live here" day. :cheers:

Ooof!! I don't envy you one bit. I've even brought the Smart Splitter in the porch - chopping wood in a blizzard wasn't my idea of fun. At least I only have to run out for a couple of logs.

I've just been out for a walk and it is absolutely glorious out there. I really didn't want to come back in. But it is lunchtime :lol:

Wow Annpan :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: .

I'm not going to complain, it's grey it's wet, it's miserable looking here in old Lundun town but that it quite normal. The bulbs are poking their heads up and i saw the first snowdrops yesterday in a neighbours garden so not long now :cheers: :cheers: .

Today has been wonderful. We've been out birdwatching and down to a beach and the sun has been shining - lovely :sunny: All the snow has gone and it's so nice to see green everywhere instead of white. The sound of a Skylark really does wonders to lift the spirits.

Better rename this round three (and four) :lol:

It's snowed now, on and off, for three days. It's quite beautiful and I went out for a walk yesterday with a neighbour.

The downside is I've just ordered nine trees (five fruit and 4 nut) and I'm worried I'll not get them in anytime soon. We tried to fill a bucket with clinker, for the path, but the pile was frozen solid :shock: :lol: .

Oooh it's been a strange old winter hasn't it! :scratch:

We have mild weather - but back to pouring rain again :roll: coupled with heavy wind. Just can't do anything outside again! We had a window of about a week where OH dug a bit more of the veg patch and we cracked on and got most of the orchard pruned. Oh well I have finished sewing up his jumper the last 2 afternoons so that's that horrid chore done! :mrgreen:
