Default Copley first snow lying

Woke up in Callaly at 06:00 to a dusting, went out to the car for the
camera at about 8 and couldn't get in as what had obviously been very
damp snow had frozen hard ! Took me about 5 mins of heaving and
blowing on the stuff - didn't have anything to scrape it off - to get
in, and then found that all my NiFe cells were so cold they wouldn't
run the camera until I'd warmed them on a radiator !

Most of it had thawed away by 10 when we went out for a walk though
there was still some on the tops...

Will do a small web page in the coming days and advise...
