It's nine o'clock on a winter morning. Temperature outside 1.5°C sunny and not much snow. The view through or window, with Parliament and the London Eye, left on horizon. Dennis.
-4, the mud is starting to freeze solid making things unpleasant for the ponies walking out to the fields.
Bright though.
We have sun and a wee flurry or 2 today. Yesterday we had more than a foot but not expecting any more. Can’t get out to take a phot as shingles and snow aren’t going too well together!

What it was like in Perth Scotland this morning. Very pretty. Probably had about 5 or 6 inches yesterday.
No snow here (we've only had a couple of flurries in the last week or so) but bitterly cold. I hate it.
Its raining here which is unusual for Manchester !
In a few months I will be be the one complaining about the cold, won't have any snow to worry about. My partner has just returned from Canada and is not a fan of snow very glad to be done with it, although she was born in Perth Scotland (came to Australia when she was 2). Interesting that it is unusual for rain in Manchester, us Aussies tend to think it rains all day every day in the UK (Ha! Ha!)
It does and especially in Manchester I was been silly. Do you still call bedding and sheets Manchester in Aus? I Believe this name was because Manchester was a great place to spin cotton because of all the moisture in the air from all the rain. During the industrial revolution it was nick named Cottonopolis and that's what made the city great well that and the music and the football !!. So I shouldn't moan too much !
Yes and all our big shops have a Manchester department
It was -14 here last night although you wouldn’t know it with the heat of the sun today. A builder has been round with a plough doing all the roads today. The fire brigade and the local football team started yesterday for a big funeral of a daughter then her dad 2 days later. It was a huge outdoor. funeral so hoping everyone kept to the lockdown rules

- 14 that is nearly as cold as my freezer, 12.08 am currently 25deg. My partner and her parents are from Perthshire they don't miss the cold weather (not that Cait remembers she has been here from the age of 2)
Lucky in Oz all the lockdown stuff is pretty much over.
So this is what we do when the weather allows: https://youtu.be/S6pOf2LXovo
When the pickle in its pot freezes, I know its cold enough to skate. You may recognise Kinderdijk, from C4s Great Canal Journeys, it is just 10 minutes away from home and the windmills are a UNESCO WH site.
Amazingly, this year they could have hosted the Elfstedentocht, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elfstedentocht which hasn't taken place for over 20 years and will rarely be seen in the future I fear.
Stay warm, stay cool, stay safe.
Here's what happened next: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-europe-56087935
This was the Tay a few days ago now we are in double figures today
