Over 50's Club Scotland

Good evening. Another cold one here today, went to the shops and got what I needed and home again. I went to my nieces before the Bells to see in the New Year. Her daughter drove me home about two in the morning.

Good Evening Scot & Jessie,still bitterly cold here -3 …bright sunshine but no snow…Hope Rox is ok…I have no plans to go out any time soon,and just been doing a cook-up for the freezer so I won’t starve. :smile:

Keep warm and cozy indoors Folks,xx

I am warm … I am cosy … my kindle is fully charged and my biccie tin is full of biccies … this is unbridled indulgence and life in the fast lane …
So … jaffas … smileytwiddling thumbs … or ginger nuts.

Morning, So much snow it’s unbelievable. The A9 was shut yesterday every snowgate closed, right down passed Inverness, no one in and no one out, never heard of it like that before.
Can’t go anywhere as my cars still out of action how it’s going to get to the garage tomorrow I don’t know, tow truck I guess, certainly can’t drive it while it’s overheating the way it is, think the engine coolant has leaked out somehow.
Anyway have a good day everyone.

I’m doing ok thanks Jess just so fed up not having my car to get out. It’s been days now and I really miss it. Dunc needs the Land Rover to get feed to the sheep and other jobs plus he says if I’m at home he knows where I am. :slightly_frowning_face: Heading to the stable shortly spend some time with the Clydes and have a bit of a muck out. Gawd how I hate Winter. :cry:

I actually liked winter in the hills of Angus in Winter. And also when went Skiing in Glenshee. Still no snow here in South Yorkshire.

Brrr …glad I’m not up Scotland. I’ve had snow here down in the Cheshire but only a covering.
Not enough to build snowmen or I’d be out there building one … they’re probably the only men slow enough for me to catch now at my age.

Good morning another cold and frosty one here.Didn’t go out yesterday because of the cold. Will try and get out later.Rox glad to hear your ok. Glad that everything is back to normal and the holidays are over.

Afternoon All…it’s Baltic here with roofs,paths,pavements,roads glittering with frost in the sunshine…I usually take My Neighbours bins back in when empty,but not today as the last thing I need is to slip and break My neck,so if They don’t bring Mine in it can stay on the pavement until there’s a thaw :laughing:

Take care Folks.xx

Afternoon All, Still snowing and still below freezing, it’s horrible out, this photo is the Berriedale Braes just south of Thurso near Helmsdale. It’s part of the the main A9 road north which is closed again as it’s too dangerous to travel on. It came up on my FB Feed. I travel this road a lot and I’ve driven it covered with snow a couple of times and was scared out of my wits incase I went over the cliffs, but never like this. It’s hard to even see the hairpin going uphill on a very steep road, but look carefully and you’ll see it bending away to the left. 2nd photo is how it looks without the snow.
My car was taken off to the garage a while earlier, be away a couple of days I expect. But at least the repair is under way. To be minus 7 or 8 tonight with an Amber Weather Warning in place…Oh Joy…Not.
Keep safe and warm everyone.

Aren’t they just !

Good morning all. The worst of the storm seems to be past and the sun is shining. I have cleared our drive but don’t intend taking the car out. I will have to take a hike to the shops.

Morning we’ve had some rain here. Supposed to have my hair done this morning but, cancelled it as looks quite slippy out there. Bin day here but they can wait till tomorrow before I bring them in, don’t want to fall and hurt myself.
