Will watch an episode before bed. Maybe it will become my favourite Scottish sitcom knocking The High Life off the top

Snowing lightly on and off all day here, so a good couple of inches now.

Another temperature drop expected tonight.

I got up to a light sprinkling of snow. Not enough to get excited about even if I wasn't working anyway.

Not weather related, but this is also what it's like in Scotland now: everyone is ill.

Aye, I was outdoors for ages Monday evening in a skiing town in the Austrian Alps in just a t-shirt and hoody. Didn't need thermals or even a jacket the entire time I was there.

Got as far north as Edinburgh this morning and I had to crack out the winter gear while I was still on the train.

We've only had a very small amount of snow. Here's the current view from the chair anyway.



Not much snow in the woods either.
