A very cold frosty day.

Today we woke up to a white world.but alas it was frost not snow! It has stayed cold all day and the frost was still very evident as we walked this afternoon. This morning we walked at Busketts. Missy had to stay on the lead as she had a small operation to remove some more troublesome eyelashes yesterday.
This afternoon we went to Pigbush, the ground was well frozen and the edges of the stream were iced over. As long as we kept walking we managed to stay reasonably warm but out fingers were tingling as we got back to the car.

A heavy frost but no snow.

It started very sunny but cold with a thick frost. The East of Britain has snow but we just have frost and a cold wind. We walked at Fritham and it was bitterly cold as we walked along the ridge but once we were in the valley we were sheltered from the wind and able to enjoy the sun. The sky soon clouded over and the sun went in and we were left again with the cold wind. However we were dressed warmly and apart from tingly ears and fingers we were warm although glad to get in the car out of the wind. The dogs just had fun.
