Fingers crossed

Today’s equinox has brought glorious weather – warm & gently sunny with no breeze to speak of. This mornings forecast on local radio held out the prospect that it might continue much the same over the weekend.

I wonder if we shall make it through to the shortest day this year without ice & snow.

We can but hope, but one of Sunday’s jobs will have to be checking the supplies of candles, hot water bottles & canned food, just in case. The county is reported to be chopping the snow clearing budget by £2million this year.
