Annual night shoot last night. Lovely night with no wind but bloody cold.

It finished late and it was nearly midnight by the time I got home.

Few hours kip and getting ready to set off down to MCL.

Pah, I've driven 25 miles to the office, bossing it in the snow in my Swedish pimp wagon.

Took me ages to get all the snow off the car, shouldn't have bothered, no fucker else on the commute had, snow falling off cars all over the shop.

Dissolved snow here on the Sarf Coast. It’s urinating down! Staffie rebellion has occurred and there is lots of heavy sighing and judgemental looks when the back door is opened.

Nanny state plastic brains wouldn’t let him and he’s told old (ie over 18) to figure out the Scandi menus to get to the “off” switch.😂

That sodding annoys me!! Especially the morning after a heavy snow + serious freeze. Then it's not soft snow hitting the car behind them it's slabs of frozen snow/ice - bloody dangerous!! (and illegal here, not thay anyone gives a shit :roll: )

Very (very)briefly considered taking a bike to work this morning as hadn't ridden either for 10 days due to man flu and decided not to bother - Cue snow.
In other news the next door neighbor's cat has turned up so that's a win

That reminds me of the time I picked a trailer up from the docks,midwinter & freezing,I had to bang all the ice from the airline connectors so that I could connect the tractor unit to the trailer.After I got everything sorted & got things moving I got to the end of the docks,did a sharp turn & 45ft/13.6 mtr of ice crashed from the trailer roof.The joys of trucking :shock:
