    Soft pampered lap dog, no fierce family saving rat killer.  🥷   He caught a bloody huge rat in the garden this morning and dispatched it with aplomb.  Back to soft loving family pet now but proud of him for taking the rat out.  It's the second time he has done it, in the summer we had a rat get in the house and sorted that one to.     As my daughter calls him Odious Maximut, as she thought it appropriate he have a gladiatorial name 🤣

    Reminds me of a dog I had many years ago. Saved us one night when he caught one really pissed off rat that was out for blood I swear…😆
    It was impressive to see, happy dog goes hunter.

  2. It’s snowing again this morning, just as things were getting cleared…lol  It is actually really nice to have this snow right now, as it has allowed me to get comfortable driving in it before departing on my trip.
     

    Received a spare tire carrier for the van yesterday, so that will get installed today.  Just a swing out hitch mount, so it shouldn’t be too difficult.  🙂 Even Pete could install it…. well 😆

    Don't you miss being in a house in times like this Michelle?

    Funny enough my old house got just as cold as it wasn’t insulated well when it was built.  When the wood stove went to sleep the place would get chilly.  The Coast never used to get this cold or snow this far south.

    I actually find the van a bit easier to warm up.

    How long is the snow now forecast for? I hope it doesn't get too bad but it sure looks nice at the moment there

    It snowed on and off all night.  Calling for more on Friday.  We did loose power last night and it got really cold. My down sleeping bag sure came in handy. 🙂

  5. Lovely, so it dumps wet snow all day, it's building up on the trees, on everything.

    Then the weather people are putting out snowfall and wind warnings.....seriously....😬

    Fingers crossed that the power does not go out, could be a cold night. 🥶  We could be buried alive...lol

    If you don't hear from me again, it's been fun....:wave:

    These two. The first is understandable and the other is dumb

    This one means you are approaching a dangerous section for traffic accidents and it is more closely monitored for excess speed so there may or may not be mobile speed camera’s ahead. 

    It's the graphic for the biker that made me laugh....lol

    Went for a walk, Landlord Pedro, Wiber and Mr Slowly sorted the internet connection 👍, went to the supermarket- photo’s below cos I know how Pete loves to take a supermarket pic 😂, my awesome, cavernous but truly ugly luggage set up that allowed me to do a jumbo size shop plus a selfie of the empty road behind me with smile as per Grasshoppers request for people to smile a bit!
    LOVE Spain in November 🥰

  8. Packing up the canoe today and taking her to a friends place for storage.  I am a bit sad leaving her behind, but I think it is for the best considering the winter weather I will be driving through.❄️

    Two weeks from today I depart. 🥶
