The BBC weather forecast for the west of Basing is up and down all week, snow then no-snow, followed by more snow and then no more snow...
Forecast temperature for today was 2 degrees above freezing... the icicles on the gutters do not have broadband and do not care about the forecast
. Wind is rather strong and north-easterly, so windchill factor is quite high - none of which helped with today's task of re-building a Vauxhall Corsa which had blown a head gasket
. Everything was so cold to hold... progress was really slow... 20 minutes work and then 10 minutes for a tea break
. Three hours plus to do the job was pure hell
.
Do I mind? One is bad enough, there is another car in the garage yard with the same malady!
