    Off to Kenya tomorrow afternoon and I'll be glad to be free of the cold stuff for 2 weeks.
    My achy bones will thank me for it.

    Well it atarted to try to snow at about 3, now it's trying alot harder and the flakes are getting bigger, it's settling nicely too, althought I'm ready for spring I do love the snow.

    It's bitterly cold out too, just set up a little indoor/outdoor thermometer and it's 4c out

    We have snow falling here in the Midlands as well.We still have loads left in the garden from all that has already fallen so looks like it will be quiet thick again:)

    Kath I can't wait for Mr K to get to retirement so we can enjoy the benefits of all the payments that are handed out to the oldies.It will be nice to get something back from the state for all that we have paid in for all these years.:D

    It was a lovely sunny day until 4 p.m. and then the snow started to get here as well. We only have about 1" but it is continuing. You lot up north didn't need to so generous to send some of it down here :hehe:

    Kandy, don't forget about the other things that you get when you become an oldie. Like, older :hehe:, crochety and grumpy :old:, aches and pains :(, forgetful :scratch:, forgetful :scratch:, forgetful :scratch: :rotfl: :rotfl: :snz: :snz:
