Or has he just used them as fuel to the fire

That depends on how they turn out.

My wood burner is ticking over nicely.

Why's the fire ticking?

 

[Drago]

About 2 inches at the moment.
Enough to cause chaos in the morning.

2 inches? Lets hope Mrs Paulus doesnt have a tape measure

Might give the kitchen a deep clean later - certainly needs it.

My granny used to say the road to hell is paved with good intentions........

I take it there was something left as opposed to ashes

It's looking grim for tomorrow morning. Local roads covered in traffic melted and fresh snow. Forecast temperature drops to -2 at 1.00am rising to 0 at 11.00am.

It's been very wet here Tonight, and now it's freezing, it'll be like a skating rink tomorrow morning.

My planned retirement has been put on hold now thanks to the economic impact of this bloody Brexit nonsense. My pension has taken a hit (not a major one and certainly less impact than if I hadn't gone with an IFA) that will mean the money I'm planning on as an adequate safety net won't be there so I've had to extend my employment for at least two years.

really?

Having retired last year but not accessing my pensions yet I'm keeping a keen eye on my pensions.

Since last year my investments have been up and down but not significantly. I "lost" a lot at the end of december but have regained most of it back since then, in total I think my investments have fallen abpout 3% over the year, but over the last 5 years have gained significantly so I'm still up

Still white outside, roads should be clear though as it is not very thick, unlike me.
