Nothing much to report, still white as it's been for a lot of this
winter, becoming monotonous.
Wind vane frozen at SSE, concrete min frozen onto concrete, grass and
concrete surrounded by walls of snow - so inaccurate readings. Solid
fuel frozen in bunker, oil disappearing at an alarming rate. The snow
excitement hasn't quite made it to Copley. I was reading somewhere
that snow makes neighbours speak - don't need snow for that here. A
mild spell now, please.
At least we're missing today's yukky stuff.
Roll on spring.

Spoke too soon, continuous light snow, let's hope it stays light, or
better still, stops.
Ah, well, Jeepy out again for the supplies trip.

Hi Ken, we *almost* have Copley weather here. I will be able to visualise
your frequent snowy reports better now. I feel stuck without 4WD ATM but at
least SWMBO did the weekly shop yesterday and we still have plenty of wood
:-)

Hi, Will,

It can be a bit of a nuisance can't it!
Pleased you are OK but I bet you enjoyed it in a way only true weather
nuts like us can! Snow clearance around here is excellent btw.
Slightly OT but we have a wood / solid fuel stove now. It replaced the
old open fire and the lack of draughts in the house now is amazing.
Keep sending the reports in - looking like a fine weekend for us, but
the Bishop Auckland game will be off - again. I think we have about 10
games to catch up. Well stuck at the bottom of the Northern League
anyway.

Ken,
Copley
