Crikey

Padstow harbour froze over!  And when I got off the bike, I swear I had an innie!  I do like a proper winter.  Now: snow plz.

See that seagull?  It's standing on the water!

Wow. I don't think anything has frozen that badly here yet. That is so NOT FAIR.

It is so DAMN COLD. Trade you a frozen harbour for some snow, though. I miss snow.

The snow didn't last.

Tell you what, though. Driving around checking for landfill odours in a village today, windows wide open, was fecking freezing.

Chew Valley lake is partially frozen over and there are sheets of ice in the Bristol docks as I walk in to work. Not seen that before

6" is safe to play on. Be amazed if we get it, but it's the kind of thing that transforms spaces.

Bitterly cold in Clapham last night (especially when the train's delayed).

However - minus 28 atop the Grande Motte during the day! Must pack thermals.

Mmm, no melty ice? :)
