I think i'm actually gonna be ok today down in Surrey. I was expecting it to be worse than yeaterday after last nights snow, but it actually marginally better. I think the overall temperature might have helped melt what was out there. One more cuppa then i'll be off. As quoted....I may be gone some time  ;D Still, better than being stuck indoors with the kids killing each other. I got ten days of that to look forward to,lol

Let me know how you get on!  I'm in Surrey too but trad only and don't fancy it with the snow and ice still around.  Supposed to rain and snow tomorrow here again so that's me done for Christmas.  They're still saying it's going to warm up a touch so I plan on doing 2 or 3 days next week, has to be done, missed too much already.

Well I managed after a dashion yesterday without needing to get thwe ladders off for some trad excercise.  I did a few bungalows that I normally trad anyway (with a strong screenwash mix) and by the time I had done that, it was just warm enough to WFP some other work.  It was very slow progress but at least it was safe.  It wasn't exactly one of my better days but I managed to get into three figures so I'm pretty happy with that considering the circumstances.
