The snow is snowing etc

And the wind is blowing, it is freezing at the moment. We are currently experiencing heavy snow showers interspersed with blue skies and bright sunshine, typical spring weather.
Sameer told me yesterday they had just gone into autumn, March 1st and June 1st is the start of winter, it is in the low 20s in Toowoomba at the moment. It is 2deg here and is expected to warm up to about 8deg by Wed.
Slept really heavy last night and have woke up with a right crick in my neck, Michael has massaged it and told me to wear a scarf, it is something that will wear off itself I think, well the snow has passed and it is beautiful again.
Fuad, as your mother I can say you are the wrong side of 40 to be engaging in OTT exercise routines, especially with our family record for bad joints etc. The words plot and lost it came to mind, leave the bakery counter alone at Wholefoods and you will lose the pounds.
We now have a dark grey sky and hail, just for a change.
Have carried on with the sorting, found a load of stuff from our first trip to Aus so there was much reminscing.
Michael has contributed to the clearing out by getting rid of about 4 sheets of paper from his football stuff. We had words of sorts when he saw that I was sending his back copies of his football magazines to the charity shop. Some of then go back to 1996 and he never looks at them, honestly.We haven't stopped laughing today. He went out to the shop to post some letters and pick up my prescription. He left in bright sunshine and half way there the snow started to fall so he got drenched.
It looks like the Trinidad deal may be on so he will be away for most of April and into May.
Havent done much food shopping so we are on to the bits. We have had Alaskan wild salmon, frozen petit pois peas and 2 potatoes cut into scallops and fried accompanied by bread and butter, we could have eaten our fingers.
If it isn't raining/snowing/hailing tomorrow we are going up to Josephs to see the chickens, burn some rubbish and take stock of the garden .
2 Coros and 1 E/enders tonight followed by 'Damages' which hopefully I shall be in bed for, I havent missed an instalment, is anyone else watching it?
It is definitely hot water bottles tonight especially for my feet.
Night all.
