Friday 20th, 5.12, -2.0dg, forecasting the last of the fine weather today for a while, with incoming snow of 74cm through until Wednesday night... we shall see. For the mountain a heavy fall of snow, heaviest during Sat night. Freeze-thaw conditions (max 3°C on Fri morning, min -7°C on Sat night). It is always such a changing feast here in the mountains with the weather forecasting. Yesterday was just a lovely sunglasses weather day. I did a double tour on the feld in brilliant warm sunshine even though the temp was -6dg, and at those temperatures the tracks are holding well enough, but it is a little later in the morning when the sun does its damage, and then when the snow plough goes over late afternoon the ground is now being exposed. Shame, I can see my lang lauf days numbered here at village level. My afternoon was one of those laugh or cry sort of moments. Damned if you do damned if you don't. The chap who came to do the survey for Crown Relocations was a little short of a gomer, and what I thought to be relatively unprofessional in his approach to what needed to be done. This will be an interesting quote. I have spent the week prevaricating over many things ... again... I will let this week finish and will start Monday with a slightly better approach to what needs to be done, my tick list has been in backward mode for a bit. I am mindful of the calendar. Today is Friday, end of week oh yay. My Friday conversation girls and then tuition with littles and seniors begins today. Change over tomorrow with outgoing family of five swapping with incoming group of four. Will I wander up into the village tonight... I just might, as I am in the mood after yesterday.
