Alis girls Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Where do you get a coat for a chicken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 1˚, very windy with a little snow blowing Brrrrrrrrrr Scotland looks bad on the roads. Hope everybody there is OK. Must be the pits to have to get to work in it. Where do you get a coat for a chicken? You could try knitting one I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 You havent seen my knitting - it would either be big enough for all 3 of mine to wear at once or so small I would be advertising a winter coat for a sparrow - its that bad I was just wondering - I am sure someone here will come on with a pattern for one just wont be me!!

Old Speckled Hen Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I remember as a child that Kent often got hit badly by snow and the news used to be full of film of farmers digging sheep out of drifts and helicopter hay drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Beautiful but very cold here. Was minus 1 yesterday, haven't looked today yet, but the drinking water was frozen solid this morning and it wasn't yesterday. No snow here but OH said he drove through a little bit yesterday morning north London way. Yesterday the local radio said clouds but the sun coming out later. We had the opposite - sun in the morning and it clouded over later! I wasn't listening to them today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at boarding school in Tunbridge Wells, and we used to get snowed in for weeks at a time... but we are about 30 yards from the sea here, so snow is a pretty rare occurrence for us!

The Dogmother Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Everything still frozen up when I went home at lunchtime. It's starting to cloud over here now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 No sign of snow in Abingdon- 35 miles south of Claret... Let me know if and when you get it Claret and I'll get my Muck boots out. Tricia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Will do Tricia no sign here yet, but it's clouding over now. Glad that I got my new Joules yard boots sorted last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Clouding up here as well Clare - feels too cold to snow though. Don't know what's happeing further south on the M40 - family are just coming northwards back from London and there's a big truck flat on its side near J6 and about 10 miles further on there was a massive pile-up. AA Roadwatch says the M40 will be closed until 9pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Yes, Phil avoided that on the way back from Suffolk, said it sounded bad. I hadn't even had the radio on, so hadn't heard anything about it. Clear as a bell here, just looked out of the front door, and can see Jupiter quite clearly. -2deg now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Soooo foggy here. I can barely make out the WIR at the bottom of the garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
