I remember when I was in primary school, we used to get thick snow. The teachers used to let us onto the fields to make snow men, Infact I remember we would get extended playtimes during that time too.

We did a few lanes around The Cat & Fiddle. But, man, it was busy. I won't be going up there again in these conditions, lots and lots of goons.
Though we might be responsible for this guy, followed us onto a lane by mistake!  Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |

East Yorkshire had a very light dusting at 5.30am. Decided my Defender would be the best way to get my wife to work in Driffield rather than her X1. Looked like a waste of my time until I set off home. Must have had 3-4" in less than an hour. Icy underneath too.
Looks like Garrowby Hill is closed, so be careful out there. |

Total disappointment in Dorset - as usual! Saw about half a dozen flakes, that was it.
Mind you round here the joy of snow is always negated by the stupidity of ordinary drivers, who will immediately and totally jam up the roads, behave in an even-more-stupid-than-normal way, and expect help as of right from any decent 4x4 which happens to be in the vicinity. |

A little dusting here over night but as its icy there's not even a chance of a snowball
I might have to go up on the tops for a look later. Ray

Been up and around the Cat and Fiddle most of the morning. Trucks stuck everywhere after ignoring the road closed signs.
White vans sliding off everywhere..... Some of the quieter roads with nice, fresh tracks and 4ft drifts to play in

Bit of snow around Norwich and Great Yarmouth earlier, rain’s now come and washed it all away, be fun if there's a freeze.
Even more fun will be today’s combination of coastal sea surges, fullish moon and two high tides on the River Bure a couple of hundred yards away from my house. Automatic ‘phone call at 06:00 this morning telling local residents to prepare to be evacuated, if the river overflowed it would have been around 08:30. It didn’t happen, but worse predicted tonight. The phenomenon is caused by the sea surge preventing the river’s mouth ebbing quickly enough, if there’s any wind tonight further keeping the river from going out, it’ll come over the quay and down my road. Neighbours are out with sandbags, I’m a little more stoic, I’ll be fine if, as the Yanks say, “the good Lord’s willing and the creek don’t rise” Peter |
