Woke up to a white carpet this morning, and it is still coming down. We have had hard frosts the last two nights, so I am not surprised. Fortunately I did all my shopping earlier in the week and I have plenty of cat food, so we shall be snug, because there is no way I can drive down the hill and through the little lanes in this. My friend was going to come over today to help me grout a tiled floor and to put my tree up, but she can't make it, nor can my carpenter who is finishing off some work, hopefully before Christmas. The ponies are in their shelter munching hay, I have filled their trough with hot water, and the cats and I shall all have a lazy day in front of the fire.
