Snow in Bristol North West. About an inch. Roads clear. Melting as sun comes round.

Quite a rarity here - my seven year old very excited and she "won" a snow ball fight with me before she went to school. Yay! Big kid me!

I'm working all day tomorrow on a factory inside clean (nice and warm) so doing my invoices/quotes and faffing about today in front of log fire and computer.

No snow here yet keeps trying.

But WFP brush has froze up this morning on first job and before we finished the windows we cleaned started to freeze.
So next job done with ladders.

Im hoping it will warm up just a fraction as i have loads of work to do but they are one's which are not safe to do with ladders.

The temperature here is 1 °c but its pretty windy i think thats why my brush and the windows i cleaned froze

I looked out the window at 6.00 am and it was clear.

The alarm went off 30 minutes later and I opened the front door to take the dog for his walk and was surprised to see a blizzard.

He still got walked though.

The first WFP clean was a pub and the water droplets did freeze on the outside of the window.

By mid-morning my feet were soaking and cold; but I was walm.

Beautiful day though and I've just had a record turnover week; although not a massive amount more than my top ladder week mind.

But I've worked less hours and burnt less calories earning it and Wor Lass has had what adds up to two days off.
