email: dover7@msn.com - 12 February 2012 10:54153030I'll have to go out and clear the path again - damn, I was looking forward to staying in the warm.
Fresh snow under ice, could be very dangerous.
Roger - 12 February 2012 11:00153035Tell me about it .I was due to start the Deal Half Marathon.Checked last night it was still on.I looked ,out of the window just before 10.00am snowing hard.I phoned my driver who advised it was ok in Deal as snow had stopped.I then got ready put on my horrible fur hat thought duty comes first .Just as my driver arrived phone call its cancelled.
However out later with terrible hat ,to a church service at the Castle . - 12 February 2012 11:35153055only a light flurry where i am but made it more slippery again.
surprised the half marathon was not called off before. - 12 February 2012 12:01153060Seems to be thawing quite quickly.
- 12 February 2012 12:52153076We spent Christmas in a cottage in the Cairngorms near Laggan, where Monarch of the Glen was filmed. This is the view from the front garden on Christmas Eve.
It was lived in for many years until his death in 2007 by this fellow, have a read about what he got up to in his in life and then you'll appreciate what we've got now is just a light sprinkling

I had a cracking walk out yesterday morning through the Shelvin Valley. Brilliant sunshine and even though it was minus 9 it felt like a spring morning.
grass grows by the inches but dies by the feet. - 13 February 2012 08:27153217Beautiful day Ian and great "wooden" photos.
Wrapping up warm can still make a good walk a pleasure on these cold days.
Roger - 13 February 2012 16:30153311Very nice pictures there guys all round. That might be the last of 'em, because as I gaze from my window I do believe I see a little gentle rain lapping downwards from on high..its actually a touch milder too.
This will probably mean curtains for all those striking snow pictures. I cant say Im sorry to see the back of it though...during one of my rambles across the un-gritted ice to the Co-Op in the week I did a hi sliding balletic pirouette mid journey...which has resulted in me damaging my ankle a tad.
I didnt actually hit the tarmac, but I did one of those bizarre ice dances... slip this way, slither that way, back the first way, double slither back the other way...not very elegant, I did a kind of rumba but I would have got 'nil point' on that ice dancing programme!
I did stay upright though and carried on with a nonchalant air....hoping nobody had noticed...email: dover7@msn.com
