It is the 40th anniversary of the lowest recorded temperature in the UK (-27.4 C at Braemar in the Scottish Highlands). It was -26 in Oxford and Toxteth, my feral cat friend, refused to go out and spent the night in front of the fire with me in the living room near the kitchen to save the pipes from freezing and bursting.

I wonder what the greatest difference of temperature is between us here? Sounds like we're getting around 50 degrees at the moment.

Six Roosevelt elk came to visit my sister yesterday. This is the first time she's seen them, and she's lived there for about 50 years.

Wow - that's a cool photo. And I now know that there are types of Elk. Are these named after Teddy Roosevelt?

From Wiki
In December 1897, mammalogist C. Hart Merriam named the species after his friend Theodore Roosevelt, then Assistant Secretary of the US Navy.[7]: 589 The desire to protect the Roosevelt elk was one of the primary forces behind the establishment of the Mount Olympus National Monument in 1909 by President Theodore Roosevelt. Later in 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt visited the region and saw the elk named after his relative.[8] The following year he created Olympic National Park.

I can't see the image and the link in your post doesn't work for me.
It seems to be tied to your email.
