Winter Weather

So that was the snow in North Dorset, was it?  About an inch after a couple of days of freezing cold weather, then it rained overnight and there's nothing left!  I didn't even have time to take a photo!  Compared to the rest of the country we've got off very lightly I suppose, but even so ...


We've now acquired daughter's car as it's gone wrong - again.  Paul's ordered some more parts for it as it's probably the same thing as last time.  And ... son's just rung from Shaftesbury to say the head gasket's blown on his car so we'll have two poorly cars on the drive.  At least daughter's car is just about driveable, or we'd be in deep trouble transport-wise.  As it is we'll have to do a bit of juggling.  Nothing new there then!


Nice meal last night with C&P, and I think the veggie dishes went down OK.  Quite tasty really, though I need to think of a way to use up left-over basmati rice...


Just two weeks till we go to Madeira.  Can't wait.
