Weather report

It's been very cold the last few days with the temperature rising only just above freezing. We've had frosts, of course, but luckily we have so far escaped the snow which has brought some parts of the country to a standstill with well over a foot lying in places. Today - for a change - we have a blue sky and sun, not that there is much warmth in it. All the same, it was quite pleasant in the park when I managed to get shelter from the north wind and stay in the sun. It's good to have firm footing through the woods and Fern comes home without being covered in mud. That mug of coffee when I get in after half or three-quarters of an hour straight after breakfast is very welcome. My main concern at the moment is that the snow should stay away as we will be off to France at the weekend and I don't want the driving conditions shown here.
