Worryingly, I'm finding this cold going right through me. I'm going
to have to start wearing old peoples clothes to combat this now
I've turned 61. Also my eyes won't stop watering, even when I get
indoors. This could also be a "getting old" thing as the doctor says
your tears don't drain away so well and I might have to have the
eye equivalent of a stent in my tear duct. How long will my snow
loving last? I've seen others waver with age.

I may have to dig out my woolly hat. For the first time this winter,
when I went out for my newspaper at 8am I noticed my ears feeling cold.
Apart from that it didn't seem too bad. Perhaps the wind has
strengthened since then? (Not exactly a WR, but Cranleigh, Surrey if
anyone ies curious.)

Colder today at last! The zonal train continues and we've had a change
for the colder. Nothing more on the horizon except oscillations
towards zonal cold. Nothing "very cold" anywhere in the UK, with
respect to daily averages at all. My overcoat was much needed first
thing this morning. Better this afternoon, but it's a whole load
better than this time last year!
