Well winter season has well and truly hit hard here in the shire!
But you know it's heart warming to see communities coming together and rallying around to help others with offers of taking folk to shops for supplies, helping dig out cars and clear the roads, rescue folks who have been stuck on their travels etc etc ..
We got stuck today ourselves, just outside our house on our way back from shops and our neighbours came to our aid to help dig out around the car , sprinkle some grit and give us a push. It's so lovely to see folks supporting folks in their time of need.
The snow is said to continue for a few more days yet according to the weather forecast.. just think, once upon a time winter was just that, winter, when seasons were how they were meant to be..
I remember as a child growing up in Banchory we had plenty of snow through the winter period, our ancestors had to face more extreme weather than this as well..
With that being said, I have chosen to stay closed this week due to the treacherous conditions; the roads around here in George square alone are horrendous and the paths are calf deep! Cars are being stuck all over the place and parking would be a problem and walking around here feels like hiking up mount Everest π
I don't want anyone travelling unnecessarily and putting themselves at risk . I mean I know my massages are amazingly good but there is always another day ππ
I have contacted tomorrows clients and I'll be in touch with all others by the end of today ..
Stay safe and stay cosy folks
