Wow!  That's cheap!
In fact it is such a good deal I immediately thought that I'd like to take up rock climbing.
Then reality set in.
I could buy some and sell them for a tenner each.  Quick profit.

I'm off out soon.. My car was covered with thick ice..
The police are outside my house.. What have I done..!! Quick.. quick.. I must put my thinking head on..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Maybe they're catching the hard line criminals who have the audacity to not clear their windscreens of ice before driving off.

It's important to stop this sort of thing (and get some cash in through fixed fines).  Murderers, rapists and burglars are low order criminals in comparison.

Roads are iced here, but the sun has appeared 🌞

Well we have snow....A lot of snow, :cry:  and it's just below freezing. No pool this morning, I doubt I'll get there at all this week. :sad:
Thurso is in for a week of it. :worried:

Crikey Raven.  Keep safe up there, especially when you take Dageus out for a walk!

It's very sunny but cold, not icy.  I walked to the charity shop this morning, first time in ages I haven't driven. Got the bus home, it's all uphill. 😨

Don't worry my hiking boots have their ice grips firmly in place. Dunc often takes Dageus if the weather's bad or he'll come with me. Actually the beach is the easiest place to walk in snow I find, it doesn't lie very thick on the sand.

Reminded me of somebody I worked with when the world was young. He used a bike as he lived locally. He said he always took [route A] to get to work as that was downhill but went home via [route B] as that was downhill too. Couldn't argue with him about it as he insisted that was correct.

The police were here this morning to visit the infant school..  They were showing the children how things worked on their police car.. The children squealed with delight when they sounded the siren.. :clap:

Less than 10 years and they'll be legging it in the unlikely event they actually see one.

They won't be legging it away from the panda's it'll be the dibble speeding away from them.
