    My poor husband, Ian, is stuck in a snowdrift and is trying to dig his way out. He was out on a job in his works van when the snow hit really badly. :( Please send him some of your virtual vibes so give him the strength to get home again.
    Oh I do wish spring would come our way!!

    Done Eileen and I will keep the vibes heading until we hear that he is safely at home.

    Hard to imagine tho, it's 70 degrees at 8 a.m. this morning and you all are under that much snow. :eek:
    He will be home shortly and you two can hunker down for a snowy weekend inside.

    All my GS vibes heading Ian's way Eils. Here's hoping he gets back on his way home shortly.

    He's been digging now for over 3 hours and is hoping that he'll soon be able to get out of the drift. He's exhausted but needs to get on his road back as the van doesn't have any equipment for an overnight stay and the temperature is dropping. Thankfully it's still light so at least that is working in his favour. Will keep you updated.

    Oh, dear. Not good at all. :( Warm vibes are sent your way, but I do hope he's back home safe and sound (and probably sore from shoveling) already.

    Ian has just come in (9pm)!! He's cold, wet, hungry and thirsty to say nothing of being completely shattered. I was really getting worried thinking he may have to spend the night in the van.

    Thank you all for your support. It really made a difference. :D
