It's snow time!

Today has given us some proper snow in Cardiff. None of the pseudo-snow of earlier in the week, but proper white stuff that is sticking and turning everything white!

Here are some pics I took a few hours ago, although it has got heavier and a little deeper since then.




You can just about see Bruce in this one, before he went to hide in the hedge.























This was when I first let Bruce out in the snow and he wasn't very sure of it. Last time we had snow, it was so deep you couldn't see his legs when he went outside.







This is Bruce when he returned from his snowy adventure and needed a nap in the blanket to warm up a bit!







I'm hoping that the snow won't last as where we live gets cut off in the snow as the council forgets to grit, resulting in it being too dangerous to drive and the bus company refusing to come through.

On the down side today, the washer in the tap in our bathroom sink has broken, meaning we either have water coming out of the tap constantly or it sounds like a whistling kettle, which by the way is particularly annoying! As you know, the DIY skills in our house are somewhat lacking, so even if we could get to the shop to get a new washer, we don't actually know what to do with it because we have a bit of a fancy tap. Not that we would know what to do if we didn't have a fancy tap!

I'm a rugby widow today as the 6 nations rugby has started. I hate sport, I can't be bothered with it. I don't mind watching the Bluebirds live or going to the odd rugby national, but I just don't understand the sports obsession and why it is so exciting. Not great when Steve loves all sports and plays quite often. Each to their own I suppose!

4 day weekend!!

Woohoo!! I have just had day 1 of my 4 day weekend. And I am loving it.

So far I have been to get some treats from Waitrose and Asda (and panic buy my mother in law's birthday present as someone forgot it it next week!), read some of my book and napped with Bruce.

My plan for this evening is to eat my treats from Waitrose, drink Prosecco and maybe watch some crap TV that I have missed out on over the last week. I'm also looking at the Cath Kidston website as I want a new bag and can't decide which one I want as they've stopped doing the one that I loved!

Oh, I also bought 3 books in Asda (it was rude not to, they were so cheap!) and 2 CDs which were on offer.

What is everyone else doing this weekend?
