We hope you have a super special day today 😀
Elliot has taken some goodies in for the teachers and also for all the girls in year 1 – he was super excited to be able to give the young ladies their gift this morning 🙂
There is also a little gift that daddy has secretly placed in mummy’s lunch bag as a little surprise to enjoy with her tea this morning :-). Love you mummy XXX OOO
Not long returned from the school run and note that it has begun snowing again 🙁 Apparently it is not due until later this afternoon, but we are supposed to be receiving a large quantity.
Hopefully, it will just continue as it is doing presently – a light flurry that is simply blowing away 🙂
BIG NEWS:
Hasbro have have a worldwide vote (didn’t see my invite to vote 🙁 ) and have decided to replace the IRON playing piece with a CAT.

Not the usual sort of news on this blog, but found it entertaining nonetheless
Well, the snow is already a distant memory with absolutely none of it left lying around as evidence of it existing at all 🙁
Replaced with rain and wind – and lots of it. The slide has blown off the kids play centre again today – we need to find a more permanent way to fasten it back on – the screws are simply not holding any more 🙁
Simon managed to wash Bruce this morning just before the damned rain came 🙁 Now the car is sat on the driveway with all sorts of garbage that has blown up onto the body work and stuck (due to the heavy wind and rain) 🙁 Guess the car needed washing and it does not need to go anywhere for a few days so will look clean on the drive for a while….
Emily is in desperate need of cleaning both inside and out… maybe tomorrow…
Friday night saw a large drop of snow on Yorkshire (as accurately predicted for three days by the met office 🙂 ) and so Saturday morning mummy and daddy were shovelling the snow off the drive and shared driveway at the bottom of our drive. There was around 4 to 5 inches that had appeared overnight so we deemed it smart to get rid of it before it turned to hardened ice. The weather forecasters had also suggested that it was going to turn to rain during Sunday and hence would vanish. We didn’t believe that part of it.
We should have heeded the advice and not bothered clearing the snow – the temperature had risen from -6 Celsius on Friday morning all the way to 7 Celsius on Saturday lunchtime. The rain came overnight on Saturday night so all the snow that we had seen drop on Sunday night was literally completely gone on Sunday morning. For a moment, we wondered if we had slept for a couple of days….
Elliot and Oliver stayed over at Cuckoos on Saturday night as mummy and daddy were going out for dinner with Granddad David to celebrate his birthday.
We all had a lovely lunch at Cuckoo’s yesterday afternoon and head home in the wet to prepare for school and work today.
It looks very much like we will be getting more rain and lots of heavy winds for the next few days 🙁
