Britain's snow misery continues...

Snow Misery
Although some of us are putting a brave face on it.

I was supposed to be doing a clinic in Mile Oak today, but I woke up to this view from our bedroom window...

Winter Wonderland
So I actually spent the day in the office, cancelling patients' appointments and eating mince pies. Occasionally at the same time. I hope they didn't notice. Interestingly, most of the patients I'm due to see tomorrow are still quite happy to come, but I did speak to one chap who phoned up to say he has an appointment for next Tuesday and won't be able to make it because of the snow. I'm not sure if he was a meteorologist or a pessimist, but either way, he must be new to this country. By next week we could all be in shirt sleeves.

Anyhoo, the good news is that I managed to make it back up the hill before sundown, so having confirmed that Lisa was too much of a wuss to leave the flat all day, I took Amelie straight out for her first hands-on experience of snow...


She'd only been out for five minutes. I think she takes after her Mum.

That's just what her Daddy used to do - get all dressed up and then say it was too cold after 5 minutes in the snow!  Did she leave her other cat glove in the snow?

Phil said...

Daddy carried it in for her. And then had to warm up her frozen hand.

She's teaching you to talk really well, Phil.  And she's totally adorable.

I love the hat and glove set. Someone has good taste, however clearly I don't, for today I was mocked for having green fleece gloves.

Phil said...

Thanks, Z. Would you like to have her for a weekend?

They'll be laughing on the other side of their faces when your green fingers produce a bumper crop in the spring.
