We were prepared to get stuck in
Southampton last night, but as no more snow fell we got to sleep in our own
bed.
The panto was great, Oh yes it was.
Brilliant 3D effects for the giants
castle and Jacks encounter with the giant. Creepy scary bugs gnashed their
teeth and waved their claws at us. Much to the kids, and our delight. We loved
every minute of it. After the performance our wait at the stage door was
rewarded when Julian Clarey himself came out.
We were lucky to in just getting to the
bus oops sorry coach station in time to catch the 1630 back to London.
All in all a great day out.
Today was a different story though. We
had a nice sleep in, when we did get up and look out the window it was evident that
there had been more snow overnight. Foxy footprints wound around the back
garden and chaffinches squabbled in the trees.
I did think we might go for a walk to
the park after lunch, but the snow just kept on falling, not that the
temperature dropped much below zero degrees. A brief walk to the supermarket
and back was enough to convince us that we should stay indoors. Which we did.
The snow has continued to fall all afternoon,
if it keeps up the trains might not be running in the morning.
Crystal Palace Station yesterday |
The Man had a nice quiet read on the
couch with the occasional nod while I had a play on the putor.
Out our window thus morning. It looks foggy because the snow is still falling |
I did think I had found the parents of
my three times great grandfather. But the John and Martha who I thought were
the right couple turned out not to be. Ah well, never mind.
The afternoon was a productive. Two
casseroles bubbling on the stove will be a very warming tea tonight and very
very welcome easy meals during the week.
