I am trying to stay in because it is so dangerous walking outside. We did walk down to the market this morning and walking on the pavements is worrying. The snow has melted and refrozen so many times and the lumps of compacted ice are now covered with fresh snow. According to the weather icon on my computer screen it should be snowing at the moment. It isn't but the sky looks full of snow,so it won't be long. |

lol, no we don't have spikes. I do have walking boots with rough soles which help. Ordinary shoes have smooth soles which are just too dangerous. The hospitals are full with people who have fallen on the ice. A friend of mine has just had to have an operation because she broke her hip when she fell on the ice. That is why i am so wary of going out in it. |

It is odd that I can't remember much about 63. We lived by the sea though,so maybe it wasn't that bad |

We bumped into our hosts from New years eve today when we went to the market. He had been suffering yesterday because he had been mixing drinks as well. I can't drink much these days without feeling the effects. I only had two glasses of wine and two glasses of Champers, but that was over about five hours,so I was fine. I had some soft drinks in-between. I knew we had to walk home, so I was careful |

I'm usually happy with a couple of glasses of wine. If we're home and it's hot I find a gin and tonic with lemon refreshing. OH finds that the older he gets the less inclined he is to drink. He enjoys a glass of whiskey in the evening but he was spoiled awhile back when he indulged in a bottle of good whiskey so now he has expensive taste. |
