Winter

It's definitely winter out there. The frost we had last night was spectacular - better than a snowfall - and it's still comfortably sub-zero. I'm just glad I'm not out driving in it, since part of the reason is that it's very slightly foggy too.

Rather thick fog between my corner of fenland and Cambridge, combined with -5°C temperatures this morning. Amazing how many people seem to think that you don't need lights on when driving in fog "if it's daylight". Or at least, I assume they had a reason for being so useless...

There was someone driving on Carlton way in the fog, at night, without lights, last night. We shouted 'lights' but I don't think they heard...

Probably deafened by the sound of breaking glass when they hit the lamppost.

The shame is, all too many Darwin Award nominees seem intent on sharing the glory.
