It was -8.6c in Dromahair this morning!! Freezing

No snow, my heart breaks a little more with every forecast that mentions more sun for the North West
Fingers crossed for the weekend.

As said, blizzard conditions in Dun Laoghaire. Main bus routes are being avoided by Dublin Bus, so no work for me today! I have to say that the Dublin Bus website has been very helpful and it much easier to read now. Thank you!
