It's been a while since I last visited the forum. Too busy looking after my wife with dementia at present.
Anyway, for those in the UK, and probably a lot of places in other parts of the world right now, the weather has really gone cold. I went out to the car this morning with a fair covering of snow over it. The windscreen was frozen which I quickly cleared. However driving behind traffic on a busy raod threw up lots of spray that quickly dried on the windscreen and couldn't be cleared as the wiper nozzles and pipes were iced up.
I got home and just topped the wiper bottle up with some of the salt water I keep for my marine tanks. All sorted. Cheaper than buying de-icer too at only 30p a litre from my LFS.
Just to finish before I make dinner, It's now been around 3 months since I converted to marine and I have to say that it's a lot easier than freshwater. The initial cost is more but the finished tanks are a lot more colourful and far easier to maintain.
Probably won't manage to get back here before Xmas so here's wishing you all Season's Greetings. Have a great time guys and gals.
