Just got back from an enforced very long weekend staying at my son's in
Epping. Epping was cold and slippery as reported elsewhere but here on
Holy Island there's at least 10cm snow. The causeway has a several cm
layer of frozen slush on it making it very difficult to get over on low
tide. Given sea water freezes at around minus 2 C and the tide washes
over the causeway twice a day it's obviously been quite cold here in my
absence.
