Beast from east struck there too ?

Yeah Mike, I managed to get home from work today and then it started coming down heavy. Supposed to be bad until Saturday.

Hello @Paulicks21, good to see you. I thought you had abandoned us.

Here too, it haven't been this cold whole winter, -21c in some places, -11c here at my place. No reprieve till Sunday, not much snow though but cold wind from North-West.

Never! Always lurking. Rosie has been ill for quite some time. She is in hospital at the moment with her mother and they are running tests. She has had a chest infection since before Christmas and had 3 courses of antibiotics but they haven't shifted it. Hoping they can finally get to the bottom of it.

That's pretty cold! It's not so cold her, currently -4c down to -7 tonight + the wind chill yeah, pretty windy!

Sorry to hear that about Rosie. It's always bad when one of your kids gets sick. Hopefully they will straighten it out now.

I thought the weather might hold it up worf! It's not great down here but the forecast looked pretty bleak for Scotland and for the next few days too. Fingers crossed it arrives tomorrow for you bud.

Ye its got bad here, even got sent home early from work lol. The card is in DPD depot in Edinburgh just now. If the weather gets worse or even just as it is then tomorrow will be doubtful. Here's hoping

At least it will get a good warmup once it arrives.

Thanks Steve. Fingers crossed. She is so small it worries me and she hasn't been eating well for a couple of weeks. I will keep you posted.

Blimey! I saw they issued the 1st ever red warning in Edinburgh today? Lot's of snow but you got a few hours of work right! lol. I would be surprised if it arrives tomorrow but you never know. Good luck.
