Snow flurries


Snow flurries today and first thing this Morning the sun was gleaming through the window. That's such a good feeling , it wasn't too cold first thing but has got colder this afternoon. At times such as this I head for the kitchen ,oh go on then have a slice if you dare. Slimming well I did promise myself to go easy but I am such a weak morsel. Well when it comes to chocolate cake covered in Mars bars melted and gently spread over. Crikey...
I picked some Holly from the garden as I see the birds have been eating them at the top of the tree. There's something about Holly that gets you in the Christmas mood. Having said that I was shopping in a large store about the end of October, and guess what they were playing Christmas songs. A tad too early I think , could be to try and get people in the mood to buy., not so good for the staff working there though all day long.
I filled the bird feeders with food this morning what a joy, and I even caught a glimpse of a Woodpecker. He was pretty quick though lovely colours black white and a red bit on his back, which I do believe is a male.
Take care keep warm its going to get colder brrrr , enjoy your day.

  2. Much colder here to-day down by the South Coast, a biting wind has added to the temperature drop, brrrr. I don't relish the thought of walking Tango later to-day, the weather men said we'll all have snow at some time, I thought it would be to-day here as it got a bit cloudy, but it's cleared again. Rain expected on Saturday. HAte the British weather. The birds cost me a fortune. the feeders I filled yesterday are empty, it's these damn pigeons. keep warm.

  7. Hi Sheila, I sent you the photo using your old e-mail address from WLS. I hope you get it. It didn't return when I sent it so I am assumming you got it. We don't have but a dusting of snow here so far but it is getting colder. It was -7 and is suppose to be -12C tonight. We have had it pretty easy so far. Well you take care, and thank you for your visits. It is always nice to hear from you across the pond.
    Hugs, Dianne :)
