As long as I have enough warning AND I have some heating and hot water
Just seen the forecast cold till Wednesday and then - aaaaaargh white precipitate again.
.
Oh and note no online orders being delivered from Tesco , ASDA, Sainsbury etc etc to Scotland - they can't guarantee delivery !!
They said food deliveries aren't involved - now that I do NOT believe. I ordered food [ and salt ] from Tesco on 1st December for delivery on 8th [ first available date ] and on the 8th [ admittedly very snowy ] it didn't appear - turns out it was cancelled and I was NOT told . First available date then was 18 December - so I'm willing to bet that for my area there are no dates now before Christmas

No they don't. They are less active in winter but do not hibernate - that's why they make stores of nuts in autumn - so they have a larder to raid in the winter.
I was watching a couple of red squirrels in the woods today. Or I was until the dog chased them up a tree.

Glad you are warm again TT.
We've had snow again today. My husband is stuck at work at the moment. He will try and get home later or else look for a hotel.
More snow expected on Wednesday.

My graphics card went belly up this morning
Spent the best part of three hours sorting it out, my tower is a pain to get into position and hide the plethora of cables, not to mention the humping about of printers & filing cabinets etc etc, though to be fair a full half hour of that time was spent rummaging round the freezing garage trying to find an old graphics card
The PC is now up and running, albeit with only one monitor and a distinct lag when trying to do anything remotely coupled with graphics.
Now I am faced with telling the wife I need to spent a lot of money on a new graphics card just after buying a K5, does anyone need a lodger

Come on man - be creative
