Good. Your witty posts often brighten our mornings!
By the way, yesterday afternoon I received a vaccine invitation from the NHS. I went through the online process and got an appointment for the first shot tomorrow afternoon at Taunton racecourse - only about 15 minutes drive. The next nearest was about 30 miles away. The earliest appointment for the second shot was mid-April, same location. The only trouble is that tomorrow's weather forecast has changed and now shows snow!
I'd advise anyone who gets the invitation to respond immediately if possible so you have the most choice of date and time, especially if it's to be at a large centre. On my first attempt, by the time I got to the end (you have to make both appointments at the same time) and clicked to Confirm someone else had got there before me for one of the appointments and I had to go through it all again (both appointments).
As I write this the family with 4 kids who've been living opposite us is moving out of their house to go and live with relatives (and their children!) who have a farm on the Quantock Hills so they can be more isolated.
My latest theory is that the strong west wind (from right of photo) during that night triggered the formation of the strange ice object. The bowl leans to the right and when full will overflow on that side. I've seen that wind blow ripples across the surface of the water and it might also lift overflowing water. Somehow this might have resulted in the raised ice but then how it became a squashed tube standing on end will have to wait until I can get access to AI! 
yup, me too
