Re: A frosty good morning
My dog and I had a wonderful walk this morning. The temperature was -4.0c, a clear blue sky and the frost on the ground sparkled like diamonds in the sunlight, truly beautiful. There were lots of other people out walking their dogs too and I even managed to keep Cinders from taking her twice daily bath in the brook. So no need to dry her when we got home.Hope your day started out as nice.

Re: A frosty good morning
Cold and gin-clear here again. As long as the roads and pavements are clear - and it's warm inside - it's pretty pleasant if you're properly dressed for it.Do you think, as this is a 'proper winter' we might, if we're very good, just, possibly, get a REAL summer this year. Nice warm dry weather, at the time of year it's supposed to come? October was very pleasant but, oh, how I love those light, balmy, real summer nights (Sounds like Grease!
)A leisurely day in prospect. Lots of armchair sport - cricket now, FA cup, The Scottish Old Firm match, rugby tonight - so I shan't be bored - as if anyone with internet access and books available should ever be bored.
Hope everyone has a very nice day. Stay safe if it's bad underfoot/tyre.

Morning all
Yet another lovely clear sunny day, +2º at the moment. I feel we have missed out on the snow again this winter - we had a light dusting a couple of weeks ago but that was it. I can understand how frustrating it must be though for those of you who are having snow falls day after day, especially if you are unable to go outdoors
Have a good day everyone, stay safe and warm

Re: A frosty good morning
okay..I got 8 minutes here...A gracious good morning to you all.
This is the last day of my 11 day break from work. I still have loads of baking stuff left over, so I've made some banana bread to take into the crew at work tomorrow, and I think I'll make some Oatmeal Scotchies next weekend.

Re: A frosty good morning
Morning all another crisp clear day, heaven !Had a lovely walk until Chloe spotted a Moorhen on the other side of the steam and ran off through the gateway into the next field to chase it . She then got confused and lost when she could hear but not see me or find her way back and ended up being chased by a cow
don't know which of us was the most relieved when she was safely back by my side .Off to see if my bread has risen
have a good day everyone...

Re: A frosty good morning
It's bitterly cold, sunny but blustery winds, -6 (22 F) and wind shill is -15!! We're not used to this weather here, I needed to go to the market for fresh produce but it was just too cold for a 20 minute walk over and back, fortunately Carolyn called to say she was going and did I want a ride,,, so am all stocked for the next few days. This cold will linger to the weekend supposedly, ugh! So that's all my news!Hope all are warm and dry!

Re: A frosty good morning
It is horrid still where I am - the deep snow is now thick ice! People were out on the loch at Lochwinnoch today when I was at the RSPB and the walks were all iced over and I couldn't go for a walk along them, so stayed in the centre most of the time before going to Castle Semple Loch and watched everyone skating and playing ice hockey on the ice! The swans were congregated at the edge and people were feeding them and the ducks as well.Seemingly, the bad weather is to continue for another 2 weeks! Who said they liked the snow!! I will swap for good auld rain any day - at least I can walk in the rain
Hope everyone has enjoyed their Sunday and enjoying a lovely warm and cosy evening
Take care.
