Thursday 7th January

Beginning to get fed up with the snow ‘cos it’s stopping me doing so much STUFF! I mean after you’ve done snowballs …which is fun for a bit but make your hands freezy, and a snowman - ours is quite good, Mum had brill ideas, putting blue water bottle tops in as his eyes… and coat hangers for his arms, those curvy plastic ones, we stuck them halfway in so you couldn’t see the hooks… and a little parsnip for his nose… I mean after all that, what can you do with it??? And it’s difficult even just walking Wizzo! Plus, it’s dangerous, Mrs Gibson went out to get her milk off the step and she fell over. Luckily there was a big pile of soft snow near the doorstep and she sat down in that, relief! Moan over… Just looked through the window at it and all the street lights are shining on it and OK, it does look pretty!
