1. Just been out toboganning at 0630

Well you know … I looked over the snow down there and as one does … I thought hmmmm, if I can find some wood … and there might be wood or even cardboard in our yard … which I remembered slopes down a hill.

So, scurried downstairs but the binmen had taken all the cardboard cases people leave … one case where their efficiency is unwelcome.

Hmmmmm … how to sled? Only thing I could see were those plastic chairs stacked by a wall … this exact white type (courtesy Bren on X):

Aha … turn one upside down on its arms … it’s curved on the upper side. Wheeeeeee … it sledded from the wall to the bins!

So, had a good time, came upstairs and put my snowbooties on the heater to dry … Toodles had just told a tale of food trays at school in her yoof (she’s still in it) … now I do have trays here and they’d work too. Plus the road outside is steep. Hmmmmm … shelved the tray idea for now … but if it snows again!

And this morning’s prayer, y’all? Lord, please don’t let me ever grow up.
