The fog

We seem to have swapped freezing conditions for fog now, thick fog that hasn't lifted for a few days. We're having a one pylon day today, as that's as far as I could see. It's a nightmare here being below sea level as any low fog and mist tends to linger a lot longer. I had to drive yesterday evening and that was one of the most frightening experiences in my entire life as I could only see a few feet in front of the car. Even on a road I know really well it's easy to become completely disorientated when it's like that. I hate driving at the best of times, but am quietly proud of myself I did it all on my own and didn't put it off! The chickens think it's outrageous as they have to stay in their run due to the fact a fox could easily get into the garden without anyone seeing while it's like this. I think at this rate the sheep are going to need to be on Prozac as they're completely fed up. The only way I can coax them out of the shelter is by offering a ginger biscuit. How on earth they'd survive in a normal flock I don't know as most sheep don't have the luxurious accommodation mine do. I think I might have spoilt them, now they can't survive without constant attention! I went out to get a new calendar yesterday and nearly got one called "Beautiful sheep", however all the pictures on there appeared to be rams with extraordinarily large testicles and I just thought it might make my boys feel a bit inferior, so I had to go for the wacky world of sheep instead!
