weather report

 Its -6, according to the illuminated panel by the station - but the sun is strong and it all looks so pretty it doesn't seem to matter. Got an SMS from SAUR (the water company) asking that we protect our meter from the cold, which has lead to lengthy debate about where they are. Not a clue.

 It was Andrees 89th birthday yesterday so we took cake - and  forgot to snap her.
      She hasn't changed.
