Went back to work this morning (6am) only lasted an hour all windows froze up and then the hoses froze. So back home drinking coffee waiting for it too warm up.

Good start to the new year!!

Its great isn't it?  I'm full of beans and raring to go but I know stuff'll just start freezing up on me.  Still, all this frost looks pretty.
