the little bit of precipitation on the display is on the eastern side of the country and heading down that side so its unlikely we will see any rain today
Its a cold 3.9c out this morning but the cloud might keep away any frost.

Local Weather today 
A rather grey and cold start, with widespread and persistent fog shrouding the hills and the odd spot of drizzle. Clouds will lift through the morning, leading to a generally dry, but rather cloudy day. Although there will be some sunshine. It will also be a cold day, despite only light easterly winds, especially out of any sunshine. Cloud will lower onto the hills during the evening, with a narrow band of showers spreading from the east towards midnight.

I did a full day at the ATA yesterday and after feeling pretty rough while working for the last few shifts felt much better.  The challenges were few, one in particular was "interesting" but i handled it with "aplomb"  .  I talked to the boss about maybe visiting the facility when its really busy in the run up to Christmas and using the full car park to distribute my book advert postcards.  It seems that it is not a problem and I'm working out a plan of action 
I remember blogging about this white headed blackbird earlier in the year and was surprised to catch a glimpse of it yesterday 
the movement detector on the camera managed to just catch it in a clip as well.

News? 
The banners have a Strictly comment, never watched it myself.  And a cookbook by Mr Ramsay for £5 
 The main headline has me puzzled, We've been through all this time and time again just get on with it! 
The Star  Sets its sights on the "Killer Freeze" at the weekend 
with this great photo and this article  although the headline indicates,  in huge letter "MINUS 10" the article only gets to -8 maybe a warm front interrupted the reporter - - - 
Our new fiver is in the news again as its inventor, an Australian blasts the vegetarian's comments about its tallow content stupid.
