Purplemaniacs Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 He'd work anywhere! Every couple of months he calls to arrange to come when I'm around so that he can do the insides too - he does all the mirrors and door glass, so I give him £20 to do the whole house inside and out... he's easy on the eye too East Northants isn't that far Chrissie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Bright and sunny-ish so far. Meant to be getting wet later. I think the decorative window cleaner might draw the line at traipsing to Cornwall to do my windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 There is a really heavy frost on the grass this morning. I love the crunching underfoot when going to see to the hens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 It was very clear and cold last night. The lawn felt crispy underfoot for the first time in ages. Couldn't get over how bright the moonlight was even though it's not a full moon yet- no need for a torch when I took the dog out Dull and murky today and it's just started to rain. A very cold breeze too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I've been up the Chilterns, seeing Phil and his folks as hi dad is very poorly; the weather started to close in... fog and icy drizzle so I started home. Not nearly so bad here and at least it's dry at the moment, but I came back down the escarpment with my foggies on as it was so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Same here, I just let the dogs out and they came back in wet.
