It is bitterly cold out today and a lot of our windows were iced over outside this morning. After lunch we walked up to the post office and there are temporary traffic lights at roadworks on Station Road. At the front of the queue was our son’s car he was on his way to pick the girls up from school and then on to ballet. We had a quick chat to him through the car window whilst he was waiting and then a bit further along there was a horse queuing. I said to the lady riding it that it was the first time I had ever seen a horse waiting at traffic lights. She told me that they have to do so.
