Meant to say as well Nicos that you do get a feel for them!

Thanks Flo, MrPots said the same thing as I walked in through the door still wearing my woolly hat

[nick the grief]

I'm addicted to jigsaws,..

me too but my favourite is my Bosch Battery one

Took me a few minutes to process that Nick, so I suppose I must qualify for the award of Not the Sharpest tool in the Shed today

Morning, it's frosty and cold out but I was in my PJ's when I nipped out to collect milk from the gate.

Going out later to take a few things to the charity shop then down to the library.

enjoy your day.

Morning, chilly but not frosty here. To be really
cold next week though. There was the most spectacular sunrise this morning but unfortunately my phone just couldn’t catch it!
Not much on the cards but hope you all have a great day! x

[Florence Fennel]

Frosty here too, but sunny so the bedding is in the washer. Have a good day All

Mornin n’alln’all

Very brrr again here - I thought we were supposed to be getting warmer whilst the uk was getting colder!…looks like we’re all getting that cold snap again -6 C forecast again.

Washing and drying nearly done here too.
Just a few domestics, then helping OH with Indian dishes for this evening as we have friends coming over to eat with us.
I swear the husband has no spice receptors- he seems to happily munch his way through the hottest curries without even a sweat!…so we are having medium and hot dishes with a Carolina reaper side sauce for him to ladle onto his food

Best get a wiggle on then!
Enjoy your weekend peeps…

Morning all, it's cold here as well but no frost.
Not a lot on the cards today.
My daughter in law is visiting this afternoon with my grandson so it will probably be a toy session.
Have a good day and stay warm.

[Nicos]

Anyone fancy a brew? I have baby Stollen too which need eating up!

[Jay22]

Me, me!

Afternoon all.

Late on parade, sorry about that. Mr Snoop has been making an IKEA shelf unit for me down in my pantry, so I thought I'd better show willing and give one of the fridges a good clear out and clean. It's going down there too. These short days are making it difficult to run an electric fridge satisfactorily off solar. But it's so cold downstairs (currently 7 ºC and dropping) that it won't come on that much. The big fridge is gas, but a second fridge is handy when there are visitors. So a productive morning.

Rather overdoing the celebrating of new shelves and improved organisation, mind. A big glass of wine at lunchtime means a nap will be needed this afternoon. So that rather diminishes the productivity. In my defence, it's not something we'd ordinarily do. Well, except the occasions when we do...

Very chilly last night and this morning. Due to warm up for a few nights and then back to very cold. But... the good news is daytime temperatures are also to rise and, unlike the night temps, won't be dropping. Gardening time is here!

Have a great rest of the day, everyone. Nicos, I'd say yes to a piece of stollen but I bet there's none left now. Hope you all enjoyed it.

We've got it going down to -3 and -4 this week so maybe the forecast is a bit slow.

Nicos I've not had Stollen for ages I do like it but does everyone else also get covered in icing sugar? Today for afternoon tea we're having toasted teacakes.
