I can hear the rallying call during the civil war, whatever you do, Stopham at the bridge

Steve,
Is that some of antifreeze that you are drinking?

According to my outside thermometer it's about 0 Centigrade outside!

I survived the cold today better then I thought. Surviving the roads was a tougher challenge. The lockdown made the A303 easy even going even past Stonehenge but the country roads leading to my job was a different story.
Thie sign says, Road liable to Flooding, what road, I see no road
The ridgeway had a better surface.

Fancy job today, Foxhill golf course.

There wasn't much snow at all when I got to my first job at Foxhills near Chertsea.
Just brushed off leaving a dry seat, good snow

I had another job just up the M3 near Kempton Park next then a ride down to Pulborough to finish something I had measured last week.

Wasn't all plain sailing, along the road to Pulborough she started coughing then splutted and squeaked to an undignified stop near a village shop. Not all bad then. Both nuts holding the carb were just about to fall off. Within 4 minutes I was off again.

They were keen for me to get these covers fitted to prevent freezing

I think you need winter tyres, Steven.
We have now -24°C and a lot of snow.
Br, Eero

Dont think I'd have coped with minus 24

That's proper cold

I am still impressed Steven. Minus 19 with icy roads here for almost a week and going lower for another week. I am anxiously awaiting spring!
