[QUOTE 5101486, member: 259"]Aw,
Kind of a social media-free winter. We both got sponsored not to do something we enjoyed, and we decided not to post anything on the internet for a couple of months. It's been interesting but vastly boring...so normal service from me [/QUOTE]
Hurrah! Welcome back.... and well done!

Whittards are suddenly closing their shop in Shrewsbury. Where am I going to get my fix of their hot chocolate now?

" You're only supposed to blow the b****y doors off! "

Well that's what the wind almost did to my car door just a few minutes ago. It's a bit windy.

I guess that foxes are less common in America than here.

Shyer, I believe. I think there is still a bounty. I think rabies does a great many in, as well.

My bike had blown over when I went outside this morning.

Just back from a walk, and can confirm it is a tad breezy.

 

[Gravity Aided]

It is 16 F. So of course, with the warm weather, it is also snowing.

Got to work a few minutes early today.

Praying the wind changes direction - so I can get home a few minutes early too

Windy today but it was off the land so the tide was no ways as high up the beach as forecast.

Back in Blighty.

Use By Dates have a lot to answer for.

Yep, couldn't agree more.

Any scientist on here will correct me if am I wrong. I thought that even a very small quantity of milk takes the oxygen out of gallons of water, so it should not be poured down the sink. If you take a bit out of the bottle of milk, to allow for expansion, it will freeze, just remember to take it out of the freezer a long time before you need it.

Dunno about the chucking milk down the sink bit... I don't freeze milk, but keep it in the coldest part of the fridge, just under the freezing compartment. Just cracked open the last of the 4 pinters I bagged for 18p on the 22nd and it's perfectly fine. Got another that I also picked up for 18p on NYE.

I have heard of "Eat me" dates, but not "Use by", can you get them in Asda?

Love it

That's another three trees felled and turned into logs.

Gonna sit back and have a relaxing evening now. Don't need to cook as I have a dressed crab in the fridge that required consuming.
