We finally got out today. Took ages to get to the supermarket. Got everything we wanted plus a bit more. We are now warm and cosy with a large cuba libra. Snow and ice please go away.
I hate that sherrard when your hands go from one extreme to the other in a matter of seconds, its so painful, i had it this evening, freezing cold hands from riding to work and then walk into the boiling hot kitchen, i was nearly screaming with pain :-(
I had gloves on and a really warm coat but they just got so cold from pushing the buggy (which is a laugh on ice). I think the schools should break up now and the kids (and their parents) can all just stay in the warm.
Craft. You like me are in West Yorkshire. I live in a cul-de-sac. Nothing is gritted. If you can get out of it we are still not on the main road. Get to the main road which is about half a mile it is ok. I know that doesn't sound far, but with snow and ice it feels like a million miles.
I chatted to my cousin on messenger today, they run a horse riding B&B up over Blackshaw and they've been snowed in for nearly 2 weeks, they're used to it though but they're livestocl is suffering. They're using more fuel and feed to keep the animals in than is usual for this time of year.
Lets hope that my husband helps those in Yorkshire when your leccy goes off -after all that what he drove for 10hrs today through hazardous conditions in Scotland for -he didnt have to as he had annual leave but old habits die hard with some people.
