We burst a hot water pipe last night and do you think we knew where the shut off valve for the garage was? No! 

Hot water sprayed everywhere, turning to steam in the frigid cold. 

It took a good half an hour to figure out what to do. 

We've sustained damage, but its all frozen right now, so who knows when we'll get it all sorted. 

Yeah! I'm sick of these temperatures for sure.

Bet you'd rather be here and 'up the lane' eh Sue?

It thawed a bit today, but cold again tonight.

Oh Ron! You have no idea! Snow and all, I would find it very therapeutic to walk 'up the road and down the lane'.

The lane is as you imagine it Sue.....exactly!

We're hoping to get just above freezing this week. It has been a long haul of cold this past month.

Still raining here in Oxfordshire.

The Rivers are unbelievably high, fast and about to overwhelm certain areas, and to cap it all the snow and ice looks like returning.

Bad news Ron, but why can't the governments and scientists of the world just admit to us what they know...... that the Earth and climate is changing and there is absolutely nothing we can do to prevent it........unfortunately!!!!! It happens every so many thousands and millions of years, they tell us that in TV programmes all the time so why can't they just accept that it is the natural progression of a planet. If a mere pleb like me can understand that why can't they?
