  3. Well the promised snow in Hampshire has arrived only a thin layer at the moment, supposed to going up north this weekend (Huddersfield) looks like we'll be staying home rather than risking the roads tomorrow.

    Today’s plan, having looked at the weather forecast which said light snow all day and Friday, was to go to work and then when the snow arrived around 10am potter around for a bit with nothing to do as you can’t dig up or plant trees when it’s frozen, and then get sent home. Woke up to find the Snow had arrived early, and a text message from the boss saying don’t bother coming in, review again tomorrow. Happy days!

    In all honesty, the snow is a bit pathetic.... not even 2 inches, and very light small flakes falling, but hey ho, it’s a snow day!

    We just got the red weather warning from Carol, she said I’ve been upgraded from a yellow warning to a red one as of half past eight. This is to include Devon, Somerset, and all of South Wales. Carol Kirkwood was very good about it and not at all pushy but we gotta have a red one .:(

    Ozziedog,,,,,,,, she’s very very nice too :)

  12. Tunbridge Wells, after a lot of snow on Tuesday, dry and sunny yesterday so went to the local corner shop, today its light snowing.

    Constant feeding of the birds, Fieldfares and Redwings and Black headed gulls have appeared to add to the local garden birds.
