Ice and mud

Forecast more snow today and I have a Skype meeting, so I went out when it was properly light.

I expected the mud in the ginnell would be bad so I went there first. I was wrong. The deeper ice and slippery downhill deep mud on the Bridleway was worse.

And the roads were like ice rinks. Lethal.

I made it. Phew !! 

But even the garden ornaments were having a freezing time. 

And ten minutes after I arrived home, the snow started - heavily......
