The Big Freeze..

Still in the grip of the big freeze. Temperatures plummeting to all time lows..minus 27 in parts of Scotland, and minus 18 in Woodford Cheshire.
VT decided that he would go out in his car today, and try to get to Formby to the Waitrose there. He took a list, the top of the list was cat food, they were getting low on supplies. I told him not to worry about money, and to get whatever he saw that we could use. He came back with a fantastic array of different things. What a good shopper he is. He bought some great bready things, soda farls, potato cakes cheese topped buns and ciabatta rolls. He also got some nice soups, and things for the freezer,pizza and salad for Sunday. We are well stocked up now.Plus the cat food so the babies are well catered for.
He said the roads were passable but you had to be careful. One of the main roads out of Hightown was dodgy because it hasn't been gritted, but the other was ok, and the bypass was alright. I was on pins till he came back. He also went to the garage to get some coal too so we have enough fuel to keep the fire going.Next door neighbour said their cold water was off...serves them right for not letting their lovely little ginger girl in. The poor little cat is waiting by their back door, because it wants to go in..shame.
Tonight we are having:
Fishless fingers,
Chips,
Green beans for me and mushy peas for VT.
