Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

Well I am sure you are all sick of hearing about it, but this cold is causing awful pain in my wrist so, apart from a trip to the shops yesterday morning, to stock up supplies for me and the cats, I have spent most of the last 2 days under a furry blanket in front of the TV!

Love it Muddy, same here, Business as usual..

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

I don't get cabin fever. I put my wellies on and go a walk.

I love walking through the crisp crunchy snow.

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

We just carried on as a normal day in spite of the snow, clipped the dogs in the morning, had lunch then coats and hats on and went for a walk with the dogs. Having worked outside most of my life I hate snow and frost with a passion, but I'll certainly not let it rule my life...

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

I just wish I could do that, my poor dog has not had a walk since Friday and wont get one today either. Our hill is totally impossible, no neighbours can get down it, so my mobility scooter stays in the garage. My own drive is so steep that I could never get it up through the gate and, of course, has not been cleared. So another day, at least, housebound.

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

Cabin Fever? it was a balmy 27°C today so despite your snow I was out and about.

However Thursday is predicted to be 38°C so not much chance of snow but I am going to a seniors lunch at the club where I will be able to stay in the air conditioned comfort afterwards testing the beer until it cools down in the evening in time to stagger home.

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

I no longer suffer from cabin fever, notwithstanding being confined to my 'pad' for days or even weeks on end. When the weather is bad, rain, hail, sleet or snow I am content to hibernate. I have a large freezer stocked with food, I have fridge also containing lots of food and two large kitchen cupboards stocked with tins and packet foods.

If I run my food cupboard,fridge or freezer down to a point where I need to restock, I go 'on-line', and order more food to be delivered to me from the nice men at Sainsburys.

The only times I need to leave my nice warm 'pad', is for hospital visits (which I now have to do twice a week) and the 'vampire' clinic to check my INR weekly.

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

I ventured out last night.....put on my Arctic white camo gear which consists of white parka, white trousers and white boots.

This stuff is good for the coldest of conditions and when used at night(in urban surroundings) gives the added protection of high visibility.

This was a big mistake as I am writing this from my hospital bed.








I was run over by a snow plough

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

Don't joke Tpin .... I'm looking at me boots, scarf and gloves and getting ready to put them on and venture out .... it's minus 3 outside.

Re: Have You Got Cabin Fever Yet?

A very thin layer of snow on the grass, that's it for us.
