here's what my garden looks like right now... you can just see the gas bottle I've rigged up for the wee fire in the living room on the left there.... the orange thing.... I'll take another pic tomorrow so you see just how bad it is......

just been outside, there's a nice drift forming at the side of the car port, a couple of foot deep at the minute, still flinging it down with snow.... looks like a day off driving tomorrow, and no sunday carvery at the white lion

good point... I'm gonna drain my car's 1/4 of a tank, and stick that in there.... It's not a riello, it's a camray 5, and I know how to prime it, it's fine and easy, just press a button, it does it for you on this one.

Worked out it uses roughly 2.4 litres an hour on full whack, there's ~15 litres in the car, we should get a couple of days out of that, which is all we need to sort the money out to buy some more. For some reason there's a minimum order of 500 litres with all the companies we have found so far, which works out to about £350..... frustrating... esp on cold days like this....

and here's the front of the bungalow, once daylight had taken over....

here's the rest of the pics Carol took this morning whilst it was all virgin snow....

Note, the car UNDER the car port is covered with snow

it was about 15 inches deep at the top of drive... a good run up, and smash through in reverse technique saw it off....
