MORE SNOW AND LOTS OF ICE AND MINOR ROADS HORRIFIC

The main problem today was that yesterdays snow went to ice even on cleared surfaces and by this morning the roads other than motorways and main arteries were very dangerous. I went to the over bridge near our house on the M6 and it was almost normal with little sight of the snow so filming would have been really superfluous, better waiting until finer weather for lorries and for normal services to resume for buses although we could all be locked down tomorrow as Corona stats in UK break daily records for infections, hospital admissions and deaths.

I got a lot of downloaded scenery kits filed away and carried on with some cine scanning. The hope was to get a days on family history catch up but at least I got the afternoon done and added a lot of material from fellow researcher but still have a link missing which we hope to solve when the My Heritage DNA results come through, they are pretty dire in normal records but my friend assures me the DNA is superior and allows more sharing and comparisons.

Tomorrow I'll put all the cine film scanning to good purpose and get cracking with some more archives. There are plenty to go at and I look forward to catching up on the current scene in January if corona regulations permit. It looks pretty bleak at present.

Another look at trams this time at museums.
