No Snow Here.

 Today in Cumbria.

While the news headlines have been full of snow, traffic disruption, power cuts and weather alerts for almost the whole of the country down here in the West Country it has been a different story. It hasn't been warm but the rain stopped last night and it has been dry all day under grey skies. 

Peter spent the afternoon down in town where the gig club had a naming ceremony for their new gig, Barum Bobby, which they have got so the younger rowers have their own boat. I pottered around the place doing a little tidying up and cooked a supper for when Peter came home. They were late getting out on the water and the biting wind was none too pleasant. My only time outside was a brief foray to feed the hen and top up all the bird feeders hanging over the stream.
