First hard frost of the Winter. Gawd knows what the temp is................I'll lend someone my big coat if they'll nip out into the garden to check the thermometer.

I went outside to check the thermometer it said: Get the feck back in the house

One of my cats came back in as its too cold for him but the older one tends to stay out longer. Sunny here now but still very cold. Not looking forward to venturing out later.

Sorry about the kak weather, Army. It too will end - eventually. (Guess Tips never taught you that one - shite. Don't quite see him as a swearing RSM type of person.)

In the vein of being positive Dreamboat - it's NOT kak weather :no:
It was cold & frosty this morning but the sun is out now and it is a beautiful fresh day inkele:

The End

BIG WAVE Army!

Anon-a-whizz, that song is now sticking in my head, but much better than the one that had been squatting there earlier, so thanks. Is this the Oman trip coming up?

Enjoy the frosty sunny very and bitterly cold beautifully fresh day

Satz, also a bit undecided - reminds me too much of the dopstelsel here, where workers on wine farms received part of their pay as rations - and part of the rations consisted of wine. (A dop is slang for a drink.) But yes, why not tonight, depending on whether Puss in Boots are dancing or not.

Working on my notes and Powerpoint presentation and handouts for the great debate.:H:H:H

If I do coffee, can somebody else do snacky things? And hot chocolate and Horselicks for the grand old ladies? :thanks:

Anon, it's been outlawed since 1961, and farmers can get huge fines for it.

More like three bottles per hour?

God... In the absence of vodders I sometimes necked an entire bottle of wine just to stop the shakes and feel normal. My stomach gets queasy just thinking about it now.

Our host was drinking red wine last night and stood next to me at one point. The smell of wine people's breath is unpleasant, to put it mildly. Hard to believe Mrs. T put up with it for so long.
