Tues, Jan 5th

Again I had to thaw ice on the car this morning with some warm water from a kettle. However, seeing as we only had the cold to deal with, we weren't complaining. The news showed countless reports of heavy snow and it was forecast to reach us this evening.

At work I was still working on last November's invoices. My boss, who left for Christmas early, was on my back to finish them ASAP so he could do the accounts. Upstairs some staff were complaining how cold it was. One thermometer showed 11 degrees and no one could get warm because the H&C system was not working and the radiators aren't worth a damn. My boss approved the purchase of three oil filled electric rads to help.

Tonight I spoke to Dad and he was pretty confident that he would be home tomorrow. I have to admit I have my reservations. Based on the snow that is being predicted, I can't see them sending him home where the road conditions are so bad. Only time will tell.
