Good morning Mick and all

Very cold and frosty here in S E Essex.

I think I am getting a chest infection, (I have asthma) progressively wheezy yesterday and feel ropey this morning. So it will be hanging on the phone for the doctor later.

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️

Good morning from our winter wonderland in Leicestershire.

We have a good depth of snow so fortunately don’t have to go anywhere.

Joke for the day.

Good morning from a sparkling north Surrey, thick frost and snow underfoot maybe a bit lethal for walking the dog
Yesterday the snow started whilst I was out with the dog and it was lovely to see his reaction, he was trying to catch the snowflakes as they fell
DH had his first vaccination, all done smoothly
In the afternoon/evening we binge watched Bridgerton. Loved it and can’t wait for the next series now
Lots of snowman photos shared on our family WhatsApp group. Good for the youngsters to be able to be out enjoying themselves, doing something a bit different in theses restricted times
Wishing all a safe and warm day. Missing Pantglass and Taichinan, hope they are both ok

Good morning from a dry, clear E Kent. The temp is +2 deg at the moment and we are promised sunshine.
Elizabeth, I understand that our envelopes will be blue over here, so they’re not confused with anything else.
Not a lot on today. Mr M likes his routine so we’re cleaning today. Hate it with a passion. Cold roast chicken, marmalade pudding. Some sewing.
Spoke to all DCs yesterday which was really nice. Had a photo of Iris sledging in 2” of snow...
Keep ☀️Sunshine in your hearts and a smile bolted on your faces. It WILL get better! Stay safe.

Good morning all from a not so frosty day here on the east coast of Fife. There’s himself started off in a poor frame of mind it doesn’t take much for mr grumpy to turn up. I better keep mum else there will be little harmony in this house today. What’s a lady to do in these circumstances? I read the over 70’s in Scotland will be getting a white envelope starting today instead of a brown one to tell them when they’re getting their vaccine the post office it seems are to give these envelopes priority. Good luck everyone in getting these envelopes. If I can send a parcel to Japan in 3 days surely we can receive our white envelopes pretty quickly. Have a good day everyone be kind flowersto yourselves and others less fortunate

Good Morning everyone from a cold and frosty Severnside. Most of yesterday’s snow has gone and the road looks icy.

Had a FaceTime with my daughter yesterday. We didn’t have much news to share though as we’ve not done much. Then my brother sent me some film footage of when my daughter was a toddler.

Today I’d like to do some crafting, there’s a few things whirring about in my head I’d like to try.

Stay safe and warm indoors unless it’s your vaccine day ?

Good. Owning, Michael and all GNs from a deep frozen South Yorkshire. Our heating was on when I got up at half past five to go to the bathroom. We usually turn it on by hand at the thermostat when we get up so it must have kicked in on the frost setting. Doesn’t bode well for the day. The only good thing is, as my mother was fond of saying, “it’s too cold for snow”! We were going to go out for a walk today but it’s hard work when the ground is frozen, and not a lot of fun. So, stay in and keep warm, I think. Have the best day you can folks.

Hello Michael and all. I have a couple of friends who are really poorly at the moment so I'm going to give a try to your parsley box and send them a selection to see if it can stimulate their appetites. Any other companies you would recommend, please? Hope you all have a pleasant day whatever that entails.

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where it is still dark, very icy -8 and we have 4” of snow on the ground.
We won’t get out of our drive, or road so we will be walking up to the factory.
DSiL has to drive up to Scotland today, I do worry about him.
Please stay safe, warm and upright today my friends?
