Hi folks: Don't forget to check the last pages of the previous chat for links, comments, and all the usual twaddle. :-)
Wise decision original goldfinch. Roads up north looked terrible so better safe than sorry. I do hope it hasn't spoilt your Christmas too much. OH should be OK at Tesco my OH went to pick the last bits this morning and it was all very civilised so I think a lot of people went yesterday. Keep warm and safe and Happy Christmas and New Year to you.

Morning all
OG - sorry your plans have been upset, but better to be safe & warm than stuck somewhere - or even worse
Margobird - sorry you are felling so bad and I hope you feel better soon
All - thanks for the lovely pics of dogs, birds, trees etc and AQ's robin in the garden - hilarious
I have just been into our local town and it was very quiet, everyone must have shopped yesterday!
We have melting snow and rain/sleet this morning - and of course now that the snow is almost gone, what came around our square this morning? A GRITTER - the first time in 27 years that I've seen one here :))
If I don't post again today, I hope everyone has an enjoyable time over Christmas - and stay safe!

Margobird : I am so sorry you are not feeling well and I do hope that you will be better soon.
The weather here is slightly better although the side roads and pavements are deadly. We had some rain on top of the hard packed frozen snow and then it froze again. I took the car out just to get some petrol and the main roads seem to be ok. I have to do some driving tomorrow unfortunately so I wont be drinking too much before then.
I tried to get another shot of the robin this morning but it was a bit dark:
Really good close ups of the seals on the grey seal cam in Estonia. Also if you click on the week in pictures there are some wonderful shots there.
