Dear Peter and the rest of the world who cares....not nice......was it! I decided to go out at 10a.m.....when it was cold, even by my standards, with added spiky sleet. The second hour did not seem quite so cold and the sleet did stop. BYE-BYE, January. My lower legs were given a real treat....as I wore my new Karrimor tights....got them yesterday...how timely! I knew Peter would go out later.... when it was warm enough for snow!!
