I don't know how cold it got last night but it's still -3 here and the pipes have frozen at the office. I've got 1/3rd of a kettle of water so I am rationing the coffee but the biggest problem is there is only one flush available.

It's OK, the coffee rationing is working. Someone went next door with a bucket and we have a full cistern again. Happiness is knowing you have a full cistern.

We've had about an inch or so and the road outside looks clear. It's melting quickly though.
