Brrr it's cold...

Moored Farm Bridge Denford, River Nene

Well the promised weather came today with vengeance, rain, snow, sleet and hail off and on today, and very high winds.  Just saw one boat on the move, and he got caught at the bridge here scraping through leaving some blue paint as he went.  They sure must have had a good reason to be on the move today.  Yesterday we saw no boats at all!

I have spent today inside, much to Lucy’s disgust…. but hey it was not fit for human beings out there, and I have enjoyed browsing around the internet and finishing off some projects on my list of ‘must do sometime’.  I am all up to date with emails, oh except one…. Avril I have a lot to write, will reply shortly.

Son Tony is coming up to see us later in the month, so I have just been booking the tickets (and paying for them as Mums do  ) on qjump.  Getting them a couple of weeks early means at least they will be a smidge cheaper.  I have decided that Peterborough is the best place, we certainly won’t be there on the day he is arriving, but there are plenty of villages along the Nene that have bus routes to that town.

The wind did drop tonight, and there was some late sun, so Lucy did get a walk, but not very far, it was freezing out there…. I’ll take her out for a couple of hours tomorrow morning as long as the temperature has risen a bit….
