@JosephineB - hang on in there, my partner is on same bus and apparently there is another numpty bus driver refusing to move and blocking the entire road; apparently the police have just shown. I guess you would be able to see that as well! Are the buses actually going up/down Dog Kennel Hill do you know?

Can't we all salt our own drives/paths etc? We bought huge 10 kilo sacks of NaCl from last time (pennies) - and have them outside the front door. We'd be really happy (and i think the girls would think it a lot of fun) if we came and salted anyone's drives etc who couldn't do it themselves.


If you'd like us to come round please just pm - payment only a smile and a ta! :))

It was hell driving down Lordship lane last night, really scarey.


Tommorow our German exchange student returns home and I have to get him to a waiting coach at his school. I expect the coach wont be there and the school will be closed. I expect Eurostar will have stopped working. My first problem is to actually drive the car to the school. I had to abandon it last night in a better used local road. Last year our road was never gritted and my car was stuck in its parking place for two weeks until the thaw.


I could attempt to get him direclty to St Pancras by train, but we know the trains wont be working, dont we.


Meanwhile the student comes from a place that is fifteen below freezing and yet full functioning. He must think we are all idiots.

Openned the front door to find my Zimmer expecting to get the hand grips warmed up ready, but it is not to be seen as the snow has covered it.

So thats it, no amble along to the Food Kitchen for me today.

Oxo for dinner and more hot water on the tea bag.

I wonder how that chap is getting on who lost his home?

I have solved my problem, in the cupboard under the worktop I keep tins, I cant bend down to look so I poked about in there and a couple of tins came out, one tin is custard the other part of the label had long since fallen off it is dated on the end best before 14/02/2000. I got my wife to get down there to see if any other tins are there, she said there are several but they had rusted and the contents have spilled out and were stuck to the bottom of the cupboard.

I have opened the tin it looks and smells O.K. Looks like stewing steak the part of the label left says Wis that?s all.

I am getting the step stool for my wife to lean on to help her get to her feet, I will cook the Steak for my wife I will make do with the custard.

My wife ate the steak but could not place the flavour made by any manufacturer.

Well that saved us but the cats can just look on wanting something I thought the wife might leave a little, they can lick my custard dish.

P.S. Thanks for the offers of help.

    • Husband came back with a load of household stuff from Pound Land yesterday - he calculated he saved around £7 on half a dozen items.
    • The only time I fill the petrol tank to its' capacity is if we go to visit family in West Sussex and stay in the nearby Premier Inn for a few days. There is no bus service between family home and the Inn - so around 8 miles round trip each day plus outings. I can afford to fill up completely, but choose to half fill in case car stolen/petrol syphoned.
    • We are looking for a new home for a beloved pet cat, Pip. Pip is an 11-year-old female. Later this year we are relocating to Australia. The long journey, along with a likely move into a busy household with young children, wouldn’t be right for her — so we’re hoping to find her a child and pet-free home where she can feel settled and loved. Pip is affectionate and enjoys company, particularly sitting on your lap or curling up at the end of the bed. She has spent most of her life with outdoor access but is also comfortable indoors and uses a litter tray when needed. She’s small in size and in good health. Her slightly puffed lower lip gives her a unique and endearing look. If you’re looking for a calm, cuddly companion, Pip might just be your cat. If you have any questions or would like to meet her, please contact me on  07900 671 018 Thank you  Archie and the Sullivan Family
    • There was also one on Goose Green. I have no idea if it's still there.
