Snow? What Snow?

Snow was forecast for the weekend and heavy too. However it didn't hit us here. Not even a flake at all. Yesterday..Saturday was really cold, and freezing rain, with little icicles on the shed roof, but today while it is cold a bit milder. they seem to have had snow in central England and down South.
jane rang up yesterday morning..i picked up the phone and a little voice at the other end said " It's snowing Mummy, and it's freezing" She was sitting on the bed with two quilts round her to keep warm, then she was going to have a bath to get warm before she went to work. Poor kid. i don't envy her going out in the cold and the dark to do her night shift. jane I'm proud of you!
Vin went out yesterday morning to Dobbies to get some logs in case we got snowed in, and he came back pleased as Punch because he had got his Dobbies card back which he had lost. It was at the Customer Services desk. So, he was a happy bunny.
last night we had:
Chinese He had Spring rolls and I had dippers
1/2 a packet of egg fried rice
Stir fry vegetables.

Today he didn't go out, we were a bit late getting up and it was cold anyway so he stopped in. We did the crosswords this afternoon, very pleasant sat by a lovely log fire and he watched his recorded Railway Journeys done by michael Portillo.
Tonight we had:
Beautiful Pizza with our tomato sauce
Portobello mushrooms pineapple courgette and red pepper for Vin
Egg and potato salad with avocado
Potato salad for moi and cheese pasta salad for Vin.
