More snow here too, won't be cutting a large hedge, as i had planned.....

So i can leave for work a little later...

Nothing not one flake, most upset, I have been waiting for some snow to try out my Yaktrak snow shoe grips, I bought them last year and the snow disappeared before I could try them out


Regards

Arnie

Pop up here to test them - still got the freezing rain glaze on everything.

Hello Arnie
I also bought a pair of YakTrax last year just in time for all the bad weather. Super - they are really great for giving a sure-footing when walking on snow and ice. Don't use them too much though on bare road or pavements as I think that they will wear out quickly then.

PS After many days of dire snow warnings all we got was some dirty slushy rain!

No snow here yet but it is really trying.

Just ice. Horrid. We bought some Kahtoolas microspikes two years ago they are pricy but brilliant. If you walk alot I would highly recommend them.

Good to see some sunshine today....it really warmed the greenhouse up...Committee Cat was really enjoying this welcome warmth from her spot in the front conservatory.

We were kept warm enough in our furniture "gardening"...

A couple of photos from this morning...the sunlight on the drive and the Achillea in the yellow border.....make that white border.

Lovely pictures Clive,
Really like the first one

I prefer the second one..

Trust you OH

In fact this one is the first one...

Blooming icy this morning...it took an age to de ice Skoda to set off to work...and the roads were awful brown snow packed to ice.

First photo...on arrival in the car park at work.

Gosh she looks a sporty little number Clive, bet she can be a right little handful.

Rosso Brunello Skoda Fabia 2 Elegance 1.2 Tsi ....a quite swift engine relative to its size...and said to have a level max torque figure across full rev range.... replacement for my 11 year old Felicia 1.6Glxi.
Felicia had regular narrow-ish tyres on alloys added from the then top model Slxi and old fangle power steering...not so sure about Fabia low profile wide-ish tyres in snow..and very light power steering..

So, yes...

A real gardeners type of a car then, Clive.

Open the boot..and it would become very apparent that it is a gardeners car........
