Saturday's forecast: 16C/61F cloudy and breezy. The morning started with bright sunshine so Mr Cee planted 40 tulip bulbs in the garden ready for Spring. They are a pretty selection of colours from maroon to pink so that should be cheerful.  While he was doing that I got all my summer wardrobe packed up and the winter wardrobe unpacked, so I'm set ( Read more... )

Yesterday was really warm and no frost at the beginning of the day which was nice. The morning began with Pilates for me - lots of hard stuff but I enjoyed it.

It has been incredibly windy overnight (even though we've had no weather warnings of any description) and it kept waking us both up through the night as it whumped around the outside of the house. It has been sunny for most of the day though so that was nice (8C/46F ( Read more... )

It's been sunny for most of the day and although the temperature was much lower than yesterday, it's not been windy - so has felt fairly warm (highs of 8C/46F).  We got up late-ish and had planned to have waffles, but when we got the electric waffle maker out it had stopped working *sadface*. We looked up when we bought it and it was 6 years ago, ( Read more... )

Youngest Cee has a fairly high fever, sore throat and is feeling sorry for himself. Although I wouldn't have wished it on her, I'm relieved he's not on his own as GF(P) is still staying with him. She is still testing positive with the Lateral Flow tests (although she's getting over her infection now). It's likely she'll be there until he tests ( Read more... )

Today's forecast 9C/48F - it started with frost this morning which was a surprise as yesterday's temperature during that day was around the same as today ( Read more... )
