Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I think it's going to be very slippy outside what with snow/ice and now with rain on top. I will not be going out anywhere.

Mr WD nearly went arse over tip when he went to get some wood. Last night the ground was frozen, then it rained, then froze again and more rain this morning made it glassy. He could hardly put one foot in front of the other without slipping over. We won't venture out again today

In polite circles they say .Dwarling I have just gone base over apex
That doesn’t include me before anyone comments 
Off to the shops for the paper and a magazine for our granddaughter. We’re also out of ice cream so we’ll get a couple of tubs. We get this from Tesco, it’s astonishingly good, I remember the old recipe was more like a sorbet, but this is really rich and creamy.

I’ve been reading. I’m tempted to have a short walk for some air before the frost comes back down. Just saw 2 ladies walking their pooches so it can’t be too bad.
Getting a bit milder here. We're having a second night of sleepover as daughter has a really nasty cold and dealing with that while trying to deal with a boisterous 5 year old is tiring her out. I'm working through a " My Little Pony " magazine with our granddaughter at the moment 👍

Changed my mind. There’s a double bill of Inspector George Gently just about to start. The final 2 episodes made.

Our forecast for Wednesday night is -28.3 C and it will get get up to a toasty -13.3C on Thursday. I will surely leave the faucets dripping Wednesday night to avoid the pipes freezing. This crap is more typical of January and February although it can stay below -18C for a week to 10 days in those months.
Be careful walking on the glare ice, Mo. Without cleats it is easy to break a hip or wrench your back or hips. I remember riding my bike to work with studded tires once and after successfully stopping going down an icy hill, putting a foot down and falling sideways because unlike my tires, my boots were not studded.
Be well and safe....

Almost every show at present is a “celebrity” version, and, I have no idea who the celebrities are.
Plus, the old films are on “The Eagle has Landed”, tonight

Not interested in celebrity Christmas bakeoff?
I'm not certain if a program by this name exists. If it doesn't, maybe it's for the best.
