Wonderful effects. I do like the way ink works with water

Nighttime wildlife
Not last night, because last night was snowing, and in any case nothing visited in the night. Apart from what looked like a cat's footprints coming up my driveway into my kitchen. But I have no video of that.
It was a heavy load of very wet snow which has completely flattened my garden and my bamboo, although once that melts the bamboo will spring back up.
It is still snowing, snowing huge lumps of snow!
People in the road are trying to get ready for work, it is 7:30 a.m. they are trying to get their cars up and running and clear of snow...
The gritters have not been to the main road at the end of my road. Anyone is taking a chance to go down that steep hill with all that wet deep snow on it...
It is a main bus route, a I am sure the gritters were not taken by surprise last night, or did people think the snow was not going to happen?
Temperatures are promised up to about 3C I hope that melts the snow...
Anyway a nighttime video of a lone badger a few nights ago ...

Creative...I was looking for paintings earlier, that I can use for Xmas cards, change them a little, add a little....found a few, but I know there is a ton more, so I need to tidy up that corner. Finishing my morning coffee first then I will tidy up that painting corner. Today's painting has been done on a piece of photographic paper which is why it's got that crackle effect. I used spray water and inks.
Have a good day....

A pic of Midnight sitting on my bedside table at 4.30 am this morning.
Found the red roof more easily today !Good morning everyone on a Bing Crosby and Dean Martinesque start to the white out here in the dark and dangerous north. 5.8 this am on not going out just yet Wednesday. There are things to do but they are not important and can be parked for another time. I still have to get a walk in but will leave that until nearer noon. Mrs Miggins is out to lunch with her sisters but the roads should be clear as they are mostly bus routes. Art bit - this red roof keeps moving around! Whatever you day brings you, it’s the one to be enjoyed. I shall drink koffy do a bit of reading.
People who design these things never try out the practicalities of wearing them @JohnEGreenThe pump thingy went beserk in the night then switched itself off the pump malfunction brought the dormant bad tempered me to the surface and it together with wound dressing hit the wall of the bedroom and is now resting somewhere on the floor, not sure what the nurse will say when she finds out how I have abused the expensive bit of kit on my appointment on Friday can’t contact her till then as she only works at the surgery Mondays and Fridays till then I shall revert back to the old non tech dressings.

Good news on the paracetamol helping with the chest issue. Prayers with you for the roads, parking and pushing. Take care.10.5 at 04.00 today. Still a bit high, even after insulin and breakfast. At least the paracetamol is keeping my sore chest within bounds, so shouldn't complain.
Neil reckons that the roads here should be alright to go to town this afternoon for my podiatry appointment. Problem might be finding a place close enough to the health centre to park and so avoiding an uphill push with the wheelchair, on slippery pavements. We shall see.
Actually it was Mr K 's idea to go earlier. A good job we did go earlier and got the room really warm as the boiler stopped working at the beginning of the second class and it did get a bit cold.how caring but typical to warm the hall - was that Mr K's idea?
Yeah, but as always not how I planned.It is 1C here. In the bewitching hour.. Just gone out to look. No worse than it was earlier. No more snow. But probably black ice. Current plan is to wait for the rat run to finish...they come over through the lane from A55.. they underestimate the conditions on that steep hill, and they are the ones that have meetings with trees and brick walls and land in people's front gardens...
Hopefully they might make the road more possible as regards snow and ice....
I have an appointment with st Paul's in Liverpool in December and I really need results of this retinopathy appointment to take there....
I will have a look out in the morning and nobody's gone to work again and I look at the road and say heck no then I'm not going. I will also then cancel st pauls until next year...
I hope you manage to get out safely in the morning @Lamont D Be careful...
Now as a pauper, deprived of a proper snooty educational religious education. I am totally confused.Fbg purportedly 3.8 this morning.
A frosty -3 degrees here.
Today is the feast day of St. Edmund patron saint of England.
Ouch!The pump thingy went beserk in the night then switched itself off the pump malfunction brought the dormant bad tempered me to the surface and it together with wound dressing hit the wall of the bedroom and is now resting somewhere on the floor, not sure what the nurse will say when she finds out how I have abused the expensive bit of kit on my appointment on Friday can’t contact her till then as she only works at the surgery Mondays and Fridays till then I shall revert back to the old non tech dressings.
#8 says to be known as this character.Morning all from L.A. - full postal address includes Bury St Edmunds @JohnEGreen. A town I like but probably not the day to venture there even though both cars are 4WD deliberately chosen for such conditions and country life. No, I don't own enough land to come over all faux disgusted Clarksonesque. I do have red chinos, Tattersal and flannel shirts and gilets (though not Schöffel ... yet?). Would be good to track down Reuben Rarebit while on offer but we have another cunning plan. The only signs of some frost here are on the top of the recently trimmed hedge opposite I saw from the kitchen diner/my sport watching room window when I opened the blinds. Our #1 grandson/grandchild is 12 today and will be here later along with his sister but he will have an hour or so on his own as she is at dance class.@JohnEGreen hug for the device malfunction. @gennepher I hope the roads are suitable for safe travel. @Krystyna23040 how caring but typical to warm the hall - was that Mr K's idea? @dunelm thank you for another in the wonderful series of when the red, red roof comes bobbing along . No fbg., no talkingtyping therapy today, just a poem to share. Enjoy Wednesday your way but do heed the wise advice attached. Aging hips and limbs don't suit contact and collisions with slippery paths - just another in the catalogue of this life's pooifications.
He opened the first Starbuck's there mate, not far from MacDonalds and M and S. I may have misread that chapter.Now as a pauper, deprived of a proper snooty educational religious education. I am totally confused.
I know that the middle eastern sainted person by the name of George is heralded as the English saint.
Never ever been to these shores.
Which secretly, I think with our political system and our snobbery of racism is hilarious....
Bury St Edmunds is named after hm, but how is he our patron saint?
Yours..
Totally baffled yokel from the North West
Stay warm and safe mate.
Take care. Get layers on. Hope it goes well for you.10.5 at 04.00 today. Still a bit high, even after insulin and breakfast. At least the paracetamol is keeping my sore chest within bounds, so shouldn't complain.
