24 hour contrasts

Yesterday morning I went out to start up Cathy’s car and found the following pattern on the roof

not so unusual but the car door being frozen shut was.  Maybe i had just missed the weather forecast that mentioned it but we certainly weren’t expecting anything so severe.  in West Cornwall the weather has tended to be much milder than say a country like the east of England. 

That was the first time we have had frozen car doors here all winter.  Not quite Marianne’s experience with the weather but notable all the same. 

Today was the contrast.  We had lunch in the garden for the first time since last summer and in shirt sleeves too.
