How picturesque it was this morning. We drew back the curtains to enjoy the scenery while having our morning tea in bed, and the air was full of white flakes, the size of half crowns (giving my age away!!). Although the shower didn't last that long, it fell on top of a fairly substantial covering of snow from last night.
All sorts of concerns about the conditions crept through my brain as the morning progressed, including my DD's trip into work first thing today. When I spoke to her later, it was to find that she had persuaded her partner to drive her in and fetch her back! Apparently Next had to delay its opening time this morning, as the person with the safe keys was struggling to get the car out from under the pile of snow!. And last night the store closed early, round about 7p.m, to allow staff to get home.
Wedding arrangements have moved on a little, we have had dialogue with the hotel as to a ref. number for guests to quote for the 'wedding rate'. We will be able to pass this on to the guests as soon as the hotel emails it to us!
My DH has occupied himself with assembling a new bike, purchased from Tesco yesterday. It was a bit of an 'impulse buy' on his part, which surprised me a little, but the attraction of the bike was that it has 18 gears and weighs less than 15kg, which is the 'average weight' limit for the bike carrier on the motorhome. Having assembled it, he then had to find space in the garage for it. The problem is, he bought two of these bikes, one for our grandson as well, for when we all go off in the motorhome! Ah well.....
But thinking of motorhomes, it must be time to look at the 'Sites for Holidays' in the Camping and Caravanning Club Magazine! I'd better sign off now, and look for the magazine. I'll just say that as I write, the sky is a beautiful pink/mauve at the point of the sunset, with the rest of the sky being a clear blue.
So beautiful!
