Another cold, cold day today. We had a Zoom session with family around the world -- Malaysia, Australia and UK, went on for about 90 minutes and then had to finish, as it was getting late on the Australia side of the world.

Missed logging this yesterday as it was Chinese New Year. Really, really, really cold (and even colder when I'm writing this just after an early morning working)

Walked before it got dark and it was absolutely freezing out there. No snow showers, but it definitely felt much colder than recent days.

Less snow showers today, but still bitterly cold. Did my walk today and have tried to start using FitBit's food tracker and maybe return to calorie counting. Last time I tried to use it, it was painfully poor on its food database. So far I've scanned a few things today and it's found everything.

Managed to catch a break between snow showers to go for a walk and deliver some cookies to my aunt in preparation for Chinese New Year.

Also tested my FitBit Pay again to make sure it was working (and it was) -- didn't test it on anything major, just a bar of Snickers to make sure if I lost anything, it would just be on an 80p bar of chocolate.

It was snowing all night and all of today. The snow has settled, covering cars and the pavement. This time the council used their brain cells and put salt on the pavement and roads before it hit, making the pavements mostly clear. Still slippery in some places however.

Also finally got my Ionic working again. Had to update my phone and Google Apps, and fix my Magisk before it seemed to want to pair properly.

It's been snowing all day. Not heavy, just light snow, but not enough to settle.

Went out for my walk, and it was bitterly cold. Weather according to the Met Office is 1degC, with a low of -3degC. Was hat and gloves weather definitely.

Another earlyish walk. Did some quick shopping at the co-op store -- had to queue up in front of the store for that, and then it started raining just as I got home.

Another comfortable walking temperature so no hat/gloves needed.

But it's also warm enough to cause some condensation to leak in my kitchen :(

Another rainy day. Got a walk done in between the showers, and it started to rain on my way back. Didn't get too wet though, so that's okay.

Another wet day, managed to get a brief walk in between rain showers. Though it wasn't that cold, no hat/gloves needed today.

Temperature okay. No gloves or hat today, didn't even need a hood, but the skies were grey and it was raining earlier, so expecting it start raining again any time now.

Temperature dropped today, so gloves and woolly hat were back out.

Early walk, a bit warmer, but still nippy.

Another cool day. Not too cold, so a comfortable walk, but terminated it before it started raining.

Warmer day, no need for gloves or wooly hat.

Did start drizzling a little bit though

Problems with my FitBit Ionic forced me to factory reset, and that even didn't work.

Basically, my Ionic will not connect to my phone after a firmware update. Before the firmware update, I can connect to setup the device, but after the firmware update completes, and the device reboots, it won't connect.

Snow is starting to melt and it's been drizzling, but not cold enough for the rain to freeze.

Really cold evening walking out. The snow is still mostly there, parts of it have melted, others have not. There's a distinct lack of grit on most of the pavements, even on the steep part of the hill where I live.

Walk had to be slower than normal, with the occasional slip.

It finally snowed today. And as usual, gritters were not out in time.

The roads turned into slushy, slippery dangerous skidways, but there were no accidents fortunately.

I had to head into Chinatown to pickup my contact lenses from the opticians. While waiting for the bus, two cars got stuck trying to climb the hill (it's a notorious hill that has caused problems in the past during snowy, icy conditions, even the police got stuck the last time it snowed heavily)

Since the cars were now blocking the road going up, I decided to go and take a different route to Chinatown, and went via the Northern Line instead of the Piccadilly Line like I was originally planning.

The pavements were slushy and there was not even any sign of gritting. The station pavements were gritted, but presumably by the station staff, and not the council.

Even while coming home and trying to climb the hill to my house, my shoes were not gripping well, and had to take small steps to make sure I wouldn't fall.

Dangerously incompetent, that's what my local council are.

Early morning shopping today, and while we were forecast for ice, there was none on my car. Temperature varied between 0 and 2 degC, so potentially-icy but no ice.

Did my walk today at the usual time, and was still pretty damn cold, but manageable.

Grey skies, looks like it's going to rain....

And it did, briefly. Didn't get too wet, though.

Went for my walk a bit earlier today, warmer but still chilly.

Went without my woolly hat and gloves for the second half of the walk.

Evening walk, and with a storm coming in, it's wet and windy too. Gone dark much earlier than usual.

Evening walk, temperature dropped again. But doable.
