Thankful for a dry Sunday. It was 3c this morning but really did feel like minus two earlier. Even with warm outer clothes on to feed the birds who eat from the table in the garden and seed feeders, it is eye watchingy freezing cold. So I realised reading and crocheting are my best choice to avoid the dreadful February cold.

Take care blippers and have a good time.
