Queensbury today
Hungry BHGs waiting for their next meal
Nobody can accuse the con club of serving warm beer
A slight thaw today but slow with temperatures up a couple of degrees.
A nice suprise at work when we actually started getting water out of the taps after a week of being frozen up.
Plenty Common and Black Headed gulls around but sticking to the garden areas waiting for food to be thrown for them, otherwise all quiet. The big thaw forecast for this weekend after more snow tomorrow with strong to gale force winds and heavy rain for Sunday, nothing new there then. Hopefully the cold spell will have shuffled things around a bit.
