Morning all! Not late cos of sleeping in, just been busy till now. We have a ferocious north-easterly wind blowing and I was going to do some more work outside (I was hacking overgrown grey sallow yesterday), but I've just noticed small raindrops on the window so may have to take another tack.

Happy days, dudes ?

Good morning everyone from N London. Bitterly cold and wet again here. A bit of snow in the air when DGS and I came home from school yesterday, and again in the evening when DS and DDIL came to collect him, but nothing to be seen today. According to the local forecast, we won't even see the sun till Tuesday! Take care GNers

MofMB a boiler service on a Saturday? Amazing.

Morning, a snowy looking sky in N Norfolk but no flakes at the moment.
We are going out tonight to celebrate 44 years of 'wedded bliss'. As it's valentines weekend, once again we'll be in there with all the young lovers!

Good morning to all, from France. Beautifully ❄️❄️❄️ and sunny, so it'll be a glorious walk this morning. Friends for supper last night, so need the walk to blow away the after effects of a jolly evening.

Good morning, grey and damp but no snow.
Spent yesterday trying to get used to my new laptop, it is fast and has a lot of storage but doesn't have a drawer for DVD ...bums, I used my other one to watch films in the bedroom.

Good morning from a cold, snowy Colchester. A thin covering of snow here and the sky is full of more for today. I have to venture to the local shop but otherwise it's a day in with the ironing and the tv.

Good morning everyone.
It's cold and wet in the Tyne Valley. 1°c and raining. I'm having a relaxing day, starting with a nap. I hate getting up at 03:30 to go to work. No matter how early I go to bed, I don't go to sleep until about 11 pm.
Have a good weekend everyone.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Very cold and wet in South Yorkshire, but thankfully no snow (yet!). Stuff to do around the house today and then over to GS's birthday party this afternoon. We may go out to eat this evening - depends what the weather does. Enjoy your day, folks.

Good morning everyone! No more snow here, I truly think we must live in the area of Britain that gets the LEAST snow (after the Scillies!) No less cold though, I think it might be a bit of cooking this morning followed by the Six Nations this afternoon!

Good morning all. We have a covering of snow on top of North Downs, Kent.
I have lunch date with friends today so would really like it to stop snowing now!

Morning all.
It's snowing in N Kent but it's the light grainy stuff not proper flakes.

Good morning all! In bed drinking a cuppa. We have the gas man coming to service our boiler at 8 am!! Have to have a bath and walk dog by then so must get up very soon!!

Good morning Mickand all.
I've had a peep out of the window, there's no snow or frost but I'm certain it's cold in Lancashire.
I've heard someone get up most likely DGS so it's time to get cracking.
Football for OH and DGD and a visit to mum for me and DGS this afternoon. Drinks at neighbours this evening.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning Mick and All

Bitterly cold with a dusting of snow in the Thames Valley.

Off on a small shopping spree and lunch out. Will need to wear our thermals today.

Have a good weekend.

Morning Mick, morning all.

We had snow overnight but it hasn't settled. It was lovely hearing gentle plops on the velux when I was awake.

DD2 and her dds are coming today for a few days so I'd better get a bustle on. I need to iron, vacuum and go to the village before they turn up.

Enjoy your days and keep warm.
