Day 32 - February 1st
Millie and I had a very snowy walk this morning. The snow that a lot of the country had previous seen finally arrived here overnight.
Day 31 - January 31st
When I went outside this morning to scrape the windscreen of the car, the temperature gauge was showing -4 degrees. Brrrrrrr .... cold!
Day 30 - January 30th
Today we had a light snowfall. Some parts of the country have had worse but we have got away lightly.
Day 27 - January 27th
This weekend has been the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch, so today between 10 and 11 we sat and watched the birds in our garden. We counted 7 woodpigeons, 1 blackbird and 1 robin and submitted out results.
Day 24 - January 24th
I've mentioned before that we have an area of the garden where any pots of indoor bulbs are planted once they have stopped flowering. The Hyacinths planted here in previous years are now flowering.
Day 23 - January 23rd
We awoke to a very thick ice on the cars this morning. Gotta love starting the day by scraping your windscreen!
Day 20 - January 20th
There was a very cold start to the day this morning. I believe this type of frost is called a 'hoarfrost'. The feathery type of frost apparently forms when the surface temperature reaches freezing point before dew starts to form.
Day 19 - January 19th
A short walk this morning over the fields. This is know as 'The Sledging Field'. I wonder whether it will see any sledging action this winter.
Day 18 - January 18th
Despite the cold weather the bulbs are obviously thriving and the crocus are now starting to flower.
