In the ice I walk like Bambi. It's so nice to get home and walk around in my socks.

I'm not sure about this photo, perhaps I've been spending too much time on Lookbook, or reading too many of Shimelle's photography tips...

The view from our bedroom window when we got up at 6am this morning. The snow twinkling in the street light on the way to work was beautiful. The sheets of ice it turned into on the way home from work? Not so good.

The last day of the year saw frost and snow in Codsall. We put on 5 layers each before heading off to London.
