A pat on my back . . .

. . . as there was the beginning of a thaw today, I reckoned it was about time to clear our cul-de-sac.

The compacted snow has been a bit bumpy, so with a 'Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's off to work I go' I worked my way from the house to the circle where the snowplough appears now and again.

First I cleared our car tracks, and then broke up the middle, as you can see.

An hour later - job done!
