Well, i went out in the snow in bare feet this morning to turn the generator on. It was bloody cold, i can tell ya! And by the time i got back in the house my feet were freezing. It's good for yer circulation though - if you don't get frostbite!
But tomorrow morning, i think i'll wear me thongs.
(Translation for non-Australian readers: no, i'm not going out in the snow in bare feet and a g-string - it might freak the guard out! "Thongs" = "flip-flops", a type of rubber sandal.)

Part of our back garden covered in snow. The small house in the corner is where the guards sleep when they're on night shift.
