I should imagine a nice bracing walk would clear your head if it all gets a bit too much
A balmy -3C here in comparison to the temperatures you've got at the moment ... unless you're doing the accounts in Spain

As a habitual offender I have to say that DD often saves me the embarrassment of paying my fees in mid-July.
More people skiing than walking in the village today.
Yesterday - son saw snowmen built in the central reservation of a dual carriageway near Norwich as drivers were queued up for so long in the snow they got bored and had a play. That was before the wind came today.
No wind today and some nice sunshine. Went for a stroll to look at a few of my hives at lunchtime and all very busy bringing in Crocus and Snowdrop pollen. Great to see after the last week of poor weather.
it was a bright sunny day this Monday so the (10) colonies at the office car park were flying well and did what bees do after being inside for a few days. They have been at work temporarily due to fears of theft at the other apiary site. First thing I heard on Tuesday morning were complaints about the orange spots on everyone's cars! I have now prepared stands for them at a new safe location so they will be moved in the next few days.
I know the owners of a furniture shop. I think it’s a pretty good swap for one jar of honey. Handy for quick inspections on its own or mixed with hessian for when I’m spending longer with the bees.
Yes, they are, Lindsay. My neighbour is a chicken farmer, and he used those rolls to make pens when 'tipping in' chicks - that's when new one-day old chicks arrived in the sheds. I got more off-cuts than I could use or even store. He is now becoming an egg farmer and changing the sheds to become free-range sheds for hens. I don't know whether he'll use those rolls of corrugated cardboard again.
