What a beautiful journey to work Bev had yesterday morning - it was very cold (-7C) with a white, crisp frost on the ground and trees, mist lingering in the dips between the rolling hills, and the sun rising into a pinkish, golden sky. It was so pretty and the kind of morning you wish you could stop and take photographs - unfortunately Bev had to get to work, so she could only look and admire but not stop to take photographs.
In cold weather Bev's car will tell her that there is a risk of ice, but it didn't tell her that yesterday morning - well, not until she was half-way to work and the temperature had gone up to -3C! So Bev has discovered that it only tells you there is a risk of ice when the temperature is exactly -3C. Mind you, it is a French car - perhaps they have no experience of temperatures below -3C in sunny France or their brains were befuddled with red wine, yummy cheese and frogs legs when they designed the electrics for our car! Leave the legs on the frogs and concentrate on the electrics, Mr Frenchie!
