Morning all.
Snowed in down on the Essex coast, unbelievable snow drifts , roads closed, schools shut, people are complaining that their roads haven't been gritted . One of the wonderful girls who cared for my lovely mum sent me a video of her being dug out by 2 snow plough on the road to Harwich, she has been out since 6 am trying to get to elderly people living on their own in rural places. Amazing people have been out all night ploughing the country roads and the police and ambulance crews are doing a wonderful job, and others are moaning about lack of grit!!!Put on your boots, leave the car in the garage and pop next door or down the road to see if the elderly neighbours need a bit of shopping or a cup of tea and a chat!

I won't start saying when I was young .............
But hey folks it is WINTER ??and we don't often get proper weather, if you don't have to go out to feed the farm animals, work in a hospital,or do something essential, then light a log fire, read a book, cook a stew, listen to music. Stay warm and feel lucky .
Lots of love
