Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. 7.4 for me. Good beginnings. White out here today.
 
Good morning again folks. I dont know whats going on with my bgls ~ its getting higher day by day. Today my meter screamed an 8.3 at me, whaaaaat?😱 I'm wondering if these very cold weather conditions have any bearing? Or if its because I have developed a chesty cough?
Just checked the temperature gauge in my garden (Shiver me timbers!) it's sub zero -7°C😱 which is very buddy cold 😱 and its forecasted to get even lower before the weekend😱 Arrrgghh!! I won't be venturing out today that's for sure. Instead I shall be making a wholesome hearty chicken casserole ~ and a veggie soup to warm me ol' cockles:D
Stay as warm as you can folks and wrap up warm and please take care should you need to go out. x

Well, not predicted to get above -1 today, but the morning BG was a cheerful 5.9. I do feel sorry for you who are snowed in, we haven’t had any. Specially those of you in Kent, which is the coldest place I’ve ever lived. And the council in Maidstone were utterly useless at gritting in those days. Nothing much has changed by the look of it.
 
Good morning folks 🙂
It's blooming freezing here this morning, not as much snow as was predicted during the night but the weather warning is in place until tomorrow night
5.3 for me today and I will certainly be staying in for the day
Wrap up and keep safe and warm guys! xx
 
How is Miss Mao doing and I hope you can relax now.
Waiting for Yang to arrive and take us to the cats hospital
Wish he would hurry up lol

I knew you'd ask Don Vinny and its already on its way by Special delivery to arrive by tomorrow morning ~ or evening whatever the case may be!:D Good thinking with regard to setting the thermostat in advance ~ you don't want to come home to burst pipes🙄

Exactly WL cannot begin to imagine what chaos there would be should they burst. I will have Hive units fitted when I get back so I can control them from here as I already do with my lighting.
A deepest, warmest and sincerest THANK YOU for the casserole. I will wait for with bated breath.:D
 
7.2 this morn and just looked out the window, snow again, ironically it will probably take me 7.2hrs to travel 36 miles on the M2, 3.5 hrs yesterday.
Nope, not going anywhere and 6 am, Power cut.....BEFORE I MADE COFFEE ! Back on now, the monster will be subdued.

I moved to Folkestone in November 1996 - that was definitely the coldest I have ever known in this country, beating Yorkshire by several degrees 😱 It was the same as now, Siberian winds blowing straight in and hitting Kent first. I was shocked! 😱

I'm in Whitstable, Thanet Way to Medway crossing snowbound, other side of crossing clear, gritted, perfect.

You will be back in the cradle of civilisation soon Northie 🙂 Probably just in time for the nice weather to start.

That is unbearable. I couldn't handle that at all.
