Another Weekly Report........

 
Vaccine report
Saturday Son had his first jab as he's on the extremely clinically vulnerable list and I'm so relieved. Sadly he'd had the AstraZeneca vaccine and felt unwell for three days. Talking to others it seems the AZ causes more yukky than the Pfizer, but still a small price to pay for the protection. 

Weather report
Sunday about 7:15am the snow started here, fine flakes that were blowing and swirling blizzard style and despite the very wet ground, settled immediately. 9am Hubby was out there shoveling and gritting our road and he was soon joined by a little neighbours' workforce of five.  
By 9:30am all those footprint were covered with a thicker layer.
All day Monday it snowed, first thing three of them shovelled and gritted. 
Tuesday has been snowing on and off throughout the day, first thing Hubby and neighbourA shovelled and gritted. 
Thursday and what they've cleared has stayed clear. Hubby still walks right down the road to check it's all safe. 
Still quite thick in the back garden where there's less sun. Those are Hubby's footprints as he makes sure the water feature doesn't freeze up as the birds love their bath even in this weather brrrrrr
And today it looks much the same. Quite frozen and crunchy underfoot, says Hubby as I've not been outside at all 😂

Cancelled stuff report
No on-your-own-drive coffee morning in the snow of course, however when Hubby was snow clearing he did check on a few neighbours. 
Tuesday Hubby's car was due in for a full service and MOT, but thankfully he has a couple of weeks to spare so waited until Tuesday morning and after being outside shoveling and gritting our road for the third time he came in and rebooked his car for when the weather is hopefully better. 
Thankfully my car MOT and service didn't get cancelled as it's Thursday and the snow problem is melting. We don't even leave the house for this one as our neighbour is the mechanic so he goes to work in my car and brings it back done when he's done for the day. 

Nothing else to report on while still in lockdown. 
Keep safe and keep warm.
