Freeze.

It's still freezing. The birds have decided to camp out on the back doorstep overnight, presumably it's a bit warmer there and presumable they have worked out that this will secure them first dibs on the scraps.

The cats aren't so keen on going out anymore. However Spook's daily adventure to find out just how cold it really is, has cost me another collar. That's two in the last week. Hmmph!

Oh and the daughter is playing King Tut's tonight. Not to make a thing of it, but am miffed that the weather is so rotten. Would have loved to have gone see, but probs safer to stay home. Am only glad I'm nowhere near Heathrow.
