Thanks to you, Martin and Stephen. I'll stop looking out the window then.
It's very much colder tonight, even though cloud has come over and it did
make me think of snow again. I gather the east of the country has plenty.



It was so cold last night, Wednesday. That I couldn't open my car door as
it was frozen shut, i had to open a rear door and sort of push it! The
ground here is lethal with melted and half melted sow forming solid layers
of pure ice even on the fields.

That's risky, it can tear the seals in half. A better idea is to us hot
water. Poured along the seal areas it releases the ice. I use hot water on
all my car windows on icy mornings. I love it because unlike using chemical
sprays it stops your breath from
freezing on the inside by warming the glass a little.
