Oh my word, as I sit typing this entry my hands are shivering and my nose is running.....and I am not convinced that I will ever be warm again.
As I mentioned in a previous post, tonight was Lindfield Village Night and we were roped into helping the Scaynes Hill Beavers and Cubs with their hamburger stand.....it sounded like a good idea at the time of the offer, but tonight it was freezing - and I don't mean that in a South African 1o degrees rainy kind of freezing....I mean the temperature was literally -1 degrees and I was out cooking burger patties while my children ran ecstatically round the streets and my littlest dressed in a vest and two baby grows huddled under 4 blankets in his pram - if you had even suggested it a year ago I would have laughed at you.
Despite the temperature and the fact that we had to de-ice the car in order to get home it was a lovely evening and very festive, I am beginning to understand the meaning of a village community and it was such fun to be out with friendly faces enjoying a new and novel experience.
