A digital misfit

The car was registering -5 outside today when I was heading out for a walk. I drove to the other side of the nature reserve north of Akalla, before walking across to the memory fields. There was a biting wind and the snow underfoot was being creaky. There were a few streams and pools nearby the path covered in ice, the surface on a couple had been broken to show an inch of ice on them.

I was glad to get back to the car and thaw out, its such a nice feeling being able to move your face again and getting the burning sensation in your ears so you know you didn’t get frostbite in them.

  1. It’s not so cold here, about zero most of the day. You’ll be heartened to hear that a light dusting of snow is once again bringing the UK economy to a grinding halt.
