No snow here and if it stays that way for the rest of my life, that will be just fine with me.

Off to Edinburgh for a few days, but LNER aren’t running services south of Newcastle until Tuesday. Sorted out some parking and getting ready to drive up.

Just woken up to two inches of snow :)

Currently, not heading to the Nightingale centre for my booster or the supermarket to pick up the click and collect as the car is stuck in the garage as the brand new roller shutter has managed to jump the runners due to Friday’s storm.

The man is on his way, no doubt, to hit it with a big hammer.

Car, in the garage? That's a pretty radical idea! :lol:

I've just finished painting the kitchen ceiling ahead of that lot being installed. I decorate the kitchen in July this year when we had a new boiler fitted, but apparently, that doesn't count and it needs redoing for the new kitchen. I can't even see where I have or haven't painted! :wtf:

It’d be even more radical if the garage build was complete… 10 weeks and we still don’t have a roof on it!

Turning electricity off at the moment and acknowledging HV cable low oil pressure alarms someone is sending me as a test.

Doing my lateral flow test, have to go and give Last Rites to someone today if I can get into the care home this afternoon. I have School Nativity and other meetings this morning.

Eating breakfast in a Bristol hotel. Just read on the news the M4 is shut after a lorry crash so I'm going to talk a walk and try and get a decent view of Clifton Bridge before I head home.
