Welcome to my Thursday 👓

Nice warm hug....

Brew with breakfast.

That Thermal vest goes on....

The temperatures dropped down last night.

It's freezing...

Two winter hats and those warm gloves got put on.

I turn on my lights.

Now to Rock 'n' roll...

Those dark clouds kept coming overhead.

Plus it was getting colder.

I said goodbye to my friends.

Then we had bits of snow appear while the sun was shining!

Everyone was looking in the hole...

Someone said,"Looks like someone is having a water meter fitted!"

I was glad I finished in one piece as the temperatures were dropping.

Home time for me.
