I was off from work today and acting as taxi driver as Keith was supposed to be meeting some ex-work colleagues for his bi-annual drink in Northampton. However when the snow arrived it was postponed as one of his mates lives down in Slough and he didn't fancy getting stuck in Northampton!
It snowed until about 10am and then the sun came out, much to the disgust of Sophie who had been on the verge of being sent home from school if it continued for another hour! Keith and I pottered about the house doing some jobs then we drove into work so we could use the internet for ten minutes. Our phone line is still down so therefore no internet at home which is now very annoying. On the way back home we called into the pub for an hour for a drink and a sandwich and it was pleasantly busy which made for a lovely atmosphere on a cold and chilly December day!
Keith and I both went to pick up the wee ones from school and listened to the news about our World Cup bid. We were both very disappointed and angry when it went to Russia and horrified to learn that England only had two votes. Some foul play there, I think.
Back home we drew the curtains on a very cold day and snuggled up in front of the television!
