Somewhere in England (possibly?)!
In the last 24hrs, we've had snow, bright sunshine, freezing temperatures, rising temperatures and rain - and now it about to do something else, but what?

Did you listen to today's Jimmy Young prog, JE?

Some utter moron tried to justify parking deliberately right in the middle of two parking spaces in order to preserve his Astra's paintwork. Beyond belief.

Is Jimmy Young still with mortal coil ?

No, but I refuse to acknowledge Jeremy Vine and will always refer to that slot by its traditional handle!

That looks just like a Christmas card, very picturesque, apart from what looks like 3 cables that spoils the image.

Whisky, vodka and beer delivery pipes from the pub in the next valley.

Which type of beer?
I'm partial to a nice, cold, lager, Stella draught is quite nice, but I've found some even nicer ones, at a local freehouse pub, which has a very large selection of domestic, and foreign brews.

OUCH - I "freeze up" at much below PLUS10!
Then again, I guess if you live in that area for very long, you are "used to it" :)

It must be time to go outside (tomorrow!) and clean the snow off the dishes, or else you won't be seeing much from anywhere else for quite a time:D
OTOH, maybe it's time to get the BBQ out again, put it under the dishes and then light it and let that do the job :D.

Only UK beam from 28,5*E is lost but rest is fine, just levels are lower in some cases. They promise plus temperature by the end of next week, so I will wait.
