We are supposed to get 15 cm (6 in) of snow today. It doesn't sound like
a lot, but the stuff that is falling is extremely fine, which means that
it will be heavy to move and will easily pack down and become very
slippery. I went out for a coffee a while ago and, even though I had
started slowing well in advance of our lane I almost slid past it.

We took some chicken legs out of the freezer for supper tonight. I will
probably throw a potato in to bake with the chicken, and there are some
nice green beans.
