Snow-15 inches of it!!!
Sunday afternoon it started raining HEAVY and at times I thought it was going to come thru the roof e went to bed about 10.30 at 11.30 the rain stopped and I got up at 2am and oops snow and lots of it and still snowing 4am I got up again and was going to take a photo it looked so pretty with the full moon etc couldn't find camera and then wham everyhting was in darkness-you guessed it the power was off. No street lights, no house lights, black out well as it happened it was off till 10pm tonight so 42 hours nothing. Thankfully we had the fire so fueled it up and are able to cook on it and boil water for COFFEE and washing dishes and sponge bath for humans. The freezer was biggest worry-we have stocked up for winter so 2 deep freezes FULL. I took the top layers and have buried it in the snow and it is a good frost out so will be ok till tomorrow. Went for a lovely walk this afternoon good to get some fresh air in the lungs couped up for 2 days the snow is beautiful and except for couple of icy patches walk was great.
Thankfully we are now back to normal-suspect I'll be called into work tomorrow so best get to bed hell yes it is nearly midnight.
