The Dogmother Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 It has been so cold here that the animals got the quickest clean out ever and my fingers were so painful when I came in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I wrapped up warm and went outside to try and knock together an extra nest box for the girls I said hello to the girls, found the wood I needed and came straight back in again. Spent the rest of the day trying to get warm again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardene5 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hi Everyone We have had heavy frost for the last 2 days making it look like we have had snow. Should it rain or sleet it will make the road very bad so lets hope it snows. Just like THE USA. How is it in your neck of the woods in the world?

Tiggy Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 O deg c here this morning, girls not too keen to come out of their nice warm eglu. I got sunburn on my face on Boxing Day went for a walk on the hills around Ludlow, lovely bright day bit chilly, you would think that I would have learned by now - red hair & sun do not go together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Minus 1 this morning and a light frost. Beautiful day here but icy cold again. Really need to clean out the 2 eglu runs, but too cold!! Fingerless gloves at the ready, so might do it later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angels4 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Another beautiful day here in the usually cold Northeast of New England...The sun is shining, no wind to speak of, and our high temp is to reach 48F lows in the 30's. Still too early to know if I'll have the windows open today though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angels4 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 No more snow then, Mark? Well, we are supposed to get a storm on New Years Eve (according to the forecasters) but if the forecasters in the UK are like ours here you know you never know.

fowlbird Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 There is a mega cold snap on the way - forecasts of -9 for the first sew days of 2009! but surely that's only for north of the Thames? it was 2º here earlier - colder now I should think.

Ardene5 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 There is a mega cold snap on the way - forecasts of -9 for the first sew days of 2009!

Egluntyne Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I've just been to put my bin out....and as Joanna Lumley said last night, it was like breathing knives. My temp gauge says -4C and I believe it. The pavement was twinkling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Freezing fog here for the last 2 days and wow I have never seen such beautiful frost, even the wheelie bin looks pretty the frosted trees are covered with white spiky blossom -8c yesterday at 6.30am when Natalie went to town for swim training, around -5c for the rest of the day. Folks were frost sledging down the Castle hill. Foggy and frosty again this morning, not sure of the temperature as I haven't ventured out yet apart from sticking my nose out of the door when I let Archie dog out for wee.

Lesley Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 -2 here, but that is in the main towns so probably colder in our rural frost pocket We went swimming yesterday - and parked by a shrub covered in beautiful pink blossom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 -8.7c here at 8.30am The inside of the Eglus were toasty when I let the girls out, no extra covers over the Eglus last night either The poo trays have frozen to the Eglu It is too cold to faff about trying to get them seperated at the moment, especially when you are still in your jimjams I've took a few pictures of the frost covered trees but photobucket is playing up for me, I will try to put a photo on here later.
