How low can it go?

First topic message reminder :

The temperature that is!

Currently around -12 °C here between Veliko Tarnovo and Sevlievo and still falling just like the snow that has not let up for the past few days.

Our dogs love playing out in it all but it will be an extremely well wrapped up person taking them out for their walk this afternoon!

Still at least the house is warm and nice glass of malt whisky will be waiting on our return.

Happy New Year everyone!!!

It is a strange thing that you head to bed after a day in thermals with snow and sheet ice all around you then you wake to glorious sunshine and have to go looking for your shorts again, no snow or ice in sight, only problem is the river that has appeared overnight and now flows rapidly past our home and down the road together with the quagmire that was once a garden!

Still managed to pull up the last of the leeks this morning and now to gear up for the snow that is forecast again for tomorrow.

Not sure what a normal winter is here, would anyone care to enlighten me?

After only three Winters here in BG I am not sure what a normal Winter is, however, yesterday was 20C in VT and today is 4 inches of snow. Our neighbour Bernard has said that he has seen Winters where he has opened his front door to one metre of snow!! So far, this Winter has been mild and the forecast is still looking good for February, fingers crossed that's how it stays.

Same here itchy :shocked1:however, I am nice and comfortable here now and don't want to go home but needs must have a house full of donations that need to be sorted and packed and a lorry to fill then back again hopefully to a proper summer with noooooooooooooo rain this time.

Sun is shing now so guess the snow will melt
