The snow has arrived gently, a flurry this morning, slightly worrying as we are in the 'orange zone' of weather forecasts. Paul is off to get some more supplies including coal. The forecasters have expressed the severity of this inverted weather pattern for this week but not when it will finish. Grim warnings about wearing wind proof outerwear against the bitter East wind later on in the week, looks like the NHS may have to step up to the mark again.
There was a moorhen/coot plodding around the back garden this morning, first time I have seen that, and a poor jackdaw last night with an injured wing. But the milkman, who doesn't normally come on a Monday, has bought a big bag of bird food, would you believe that milkmen still delivered. I note from the bill he has brought that the 'Guardian' is £2.90 and the 'Times' £1.70 - quite a difference, Paul will say 'go on, give the Guardian up'.........
Picture from the North Allerton Echo it is not funny, except it is, but there has been a spate of ATMs robberies not sure where though.

I like The Guardian on a Saturday butmy week day reading is The Times - the weekday Guardian is so flimsy.
ReplyDeleteNoticed how the Guardian is getting thinner as well, but like the new format. Trouble is just like it as a paper and the journalists that write in it.
