This cold weather is killing the work for us, due to the leaflet deliverers moaning that they won't deliver in minus 4 ::)roll

I always tell them there is no such thing as bad weather.... Just bad clothing, if there's snow on the ground don't come to work in flipflops ::)roll ::)roll

A couple of weeks ago the Graylag geese started to arrive and fill the fields as they do each " spring " poor sods are faced with frozen ground.

Although we are almost snow free it's VERY, VERY COLD due to the freezing wind.
