Golfing in the snow

28 10 2008

Winter has officially, officially arrived…snow, sleet & ice coming along with it.  After a summer of constant downpours I don’t care if it’s cold.  As long as it’s bloody dry. 

This morning was really the start of it.  The onset of the big winter freeze.  The weather was to be good, but predictably Mr Weather Man was wrong.  Tuesday morning it was absolutely freezing and either sleet, rain or snow was coming down in buckets.  It was so cool, literally, to be at work, have the atmosphere suddenly go grey & murky then snow, all while inside, toasty at work.  It was wet snow, but I didn’t care.  Gazing out the windows, heavy sheets of white flowing, piling up on cars, trees, rocks, stairs – so very nice.  I wish there was snow without the cold. 

By the time Ma & I headed out for golf it was even more cold (if that is possible) but the downpour had ceased.  It was so cold.  About -17 I thought but Ma reliably informed me that it was 2 degrees & to shut up.  I was wearing all the warm stuff I own and was still cold.  We even had these great little hand warmer thingos.  You just stick em in your pocket & off you go.  They’re great.  Even better cause Handy Andy donates them (woot - free stuff) to us so we can have one each.  I kindly shared mine with Ms G one day (so nice I know) & she agrees – they are great.  They stay all toasty for 8 hours & I believe in a perfect world they would come in body size shapes.  I’m told they don’t.edenmore-6th-dec
