Here where we live in Cornwall we are iced up at home and can't get out.
We live in a small estate, on a hill that is too steep for the Council
gritters to work on.
The result is that I still need to take the dog out twice a day, and
that's where my spiked golf shoes are so handy. I am the envy of my
neighbours, as they slip and slide and fall over, I am striding up the
hill, dog on lead, with a merry quip on my lips for my recumbent
neighbours.
Who said that golf is a waste of time. I shall remind them of this come
the spring and the usual wise-cracks as I fill the car with golf
paraphernalia.
Roll on the thaw.

Peter

In Millport the roads are absolutely clear and the grass is green - 3
golfers walked the course the other day and collected lots of plugged
balls which pop up when the ground freezes.

I don't want a thaw - we've got good black ice and the probability of a
Grand Match - after that it can thaw!
