I know that this doesn't really count to those people in Canada and the Mid-West who have been suffering ice-storms, but it was a bit nippy out there today!!!
I'm currently working on this barn, which is in a field, on the top of a hill, in the middle of nowhere. (i.e. Wiltshire) It is a beautiful place and in the summer this job would be great. The track would also be less muddy and the ford less deep.
As it was we were quite lucky to get through and for a second on the way back I was certain that Zippy had stalled in the middle of the ford.... but not. I got through with no problems.
It was a clear and lovely day today and it was only the wind that made it seem extra cold. And the wind is supposed to be stronger tomorrow......
Now, I'm not normally known for suffering the cold but I was wearing a thick shirt, jumper, fleece, coat (with hood up), woolly hat, two pairs of gloves, thick socks and thermal socks and there were times when even I found it a little on the cold side.......
