Snow, fibres and othe extras

Well, what a day! Woke up to this today of all days,
totally unexpected. Had to go out to collect some fibres
for a felt making workshop on Tuesday. Couldn't rely on
the post to get them to me in time, only knew about it
10 days ago. The OH was tasked with taking me
today......
Just signs of birds and cats or foxes in the garden.

Not sure what these marks are but I think they are made

by bird wings.

The robins were the first of the feathered visitors to come

after I'd put out breakfast.

This was how it looked at the front of our house when we

left on our intrepid journey.

We went through the road widening road works on the M1.

Just 2 lanes ........

Due to snow problems on the motorway we had to leave

the M1 at the Meadowhall junction and go across Tinsley

Viaduct - that's what it used to be called!

Meadowhall, still loads of people going in despite the weather.

The sat.nav. took us on a pretty route but with lots of snow.

Thank goodness for four wheel drive.....

We ended up here, Wentworth village ......

We were heading for Wingham Wool Work.

I'd already ordered this......

but had to get some more coloured tops, a hat block and

some cotton gauze.

Needed to call at the local garden centre for a cuppa and loo stop.

Hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows is the thing for a

snow day.

The staff at the garden centre had been working very hard

to clear the car park and footpaths.

Back to the M1 and 3 lanes now but very wet.

The sun made an appearance......

And this is what we came home to. It didn't feel like the same day.

Our adventure is over! Time to download photos and get

tea started.
