Agreement at last?

Despite the snow still hanging about, we were busier at work today and I think that people are going to just have to put up with the weather at the moment. Life cannot grind to a halt because it's cold and snowy!

Today was fairly intensive at work. We had long discussions about the new lease and even went to look at two buildings nearby that could have been our new home. Funnily enough, though, we were prevented from even leaving the car park by a lorry that was stuck in the snow on the road outside. His wheels were spinning and all we could do was sit and wait until at last I was able to gingerly make my way around his bottom, terrified in case he slipped back and hit us!

We looked at the buildings but I don't think any of us could envisage us moving there - the roads nearby were crowded with cars and we would miss all the outside space we have at the moment. When we got back we telephoned our surveyor and he had some cautiously good news. We've been offered six months free rent spread over two years and after we sat and worked it out it does mean we would make a large saving. So...fingers crossed!

Today has been beautiful - clear blue skies, sunshine and sparkling snow. I really do prefer this weather but it's forecast to snow again tonight and it's bitterly cold. Soph and Susie walked to work after school and we closed up at 4pm as we had no customers. I stopped on the way home and snapped a few pics of the trees and fields. I will miss this cold snap when it eventually ends. Never has the countryside looked so lovely.
