	I haven't worn my cosy winter boots yet this season. I know the grip on my trainers is good and feel safer in them in this weather.

	I only guessed it Gwyn ;-)

	My house insurance last time wanted to know what percentage flat roof we have. We made a considered guess.

	Daughter had to go out for a work meeting. She was not impressed by that, but did stop and get a few extra supplies on her way home. We seem to be drinking a lot of hot chocolate lately :-D

	It is a dorma bungalow Gwyn so the roof is not that big the flat roofs take up about 40% :-)

	I think I will wear trainers tomorrow if it is frosty, they have more grip. I made some weird sort of screaming noise when I slipped this morning. Made some dog turn around and give me an old fashioned look :-D :-D

	Ah dormas, Fly :-\| As a child, I lived in a bungalow that had had another room built in the roof space. It could rain quite hard and be OK, but sometimes just light rain, but with a strong wind from a certain direction and we'd get a wet patch under the window :-\|

	Yes, we had our roof done about eight years ago....first time since it was built in the early 1930s .....they put a membrane on then and it made such a difference :-D

	I have been indoors all day. The sun through the window was lovely, but I bet it was still cold out. Will wrap up and get a bit of exercise tomorrow.
