The Canal....nearly frozen....
Well winter is here and it's here to stay!

I always thought -4 degrees in Donegal during the winter was cold but it's so much colder here that -4degrees is the indoor temperature! Over the past two weeks we have had a low of -23degrees with certain days seeing no warmer than -10degrees. To be honest it's grand and makes regular stuff like getting milk that much more of a fun challenge!

Haven't done much travelling over the past few weeks due to the weather, instead we've (Colm and I) have sourced the local Irish community and we now play in an indoor football league every Monday.
(PLD 3 W3 D0 F17 A8 PTS9)

Apart from that we are keeping the Irish stereotype up by hitting the town the odd night. Colm has befriended a few unsuspecting folk at Dell where he works. They have already invited us to two private birthday parties....of course it would have been rude to say no....the fact that there was free drink played no part in our decision to go😊

Well that's all the craic for now. Christmas will be spent up country in Meagan’s home place and new years
