Our snow was short-lived. One day and night of it and by this morning it had all been rained away. Only the snowmen are left, dotted about the place. The local dogs (including ours) have all decided that snowmen are evil and must be stopped. The barking is incessant … wonder why dogs don’t like the white fellows?

Worked from home today & yesterday. That was meant to be the agenda for yesterday, but today I had a meeting scheduled in London & moved it to Thursday.
Driving to Bracknell tomorrow, normally leave very early so will be leaving before 06:00 so that'll be exciting in the Jag!

I had a meeting in London for yesterday but that was cancelled and I wouldn't have made it to the office. This was our dog charging around chasing the snowballs thrown by the neighbours children. She loved it :P

Second photo is the mess she made of my parents dog on Sunday. Our gardens become a mud patch since we picked her up and both dogs needed a shower after 2 hours running around
