Mrs Frugal Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Oh please don't let it come down to Sunny Stamford as LSH has finally agreed to finish laying the path in the garden after nearly 8 months of looking at a pile of bricks out of the window .

Trish Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Oh! normally I love snow but I'm driving from Leeds to Birmingham today, through Sheffield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Photos? Please?!I love snow Will this do until Egluntine gets the camera out? (Cheating a bit, admittedly, as it's the highest point in Britain ). Apologies for the teenager-shaped hole in the pristine snow .) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 Gosh...it is nothing like that! It hasn't even laid! It is just sleet and drizzle now! It was a bit of a surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 We have lots of snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow, but we've already ahad a flurry or two today, not that it's hung around once the sun came out. Difficult to believe that 2 days ago the children were all wearing their shorts and t-shirts, and me and my friends all enjoyed a cuppa and a chat in the garden under the umbrella.

Egluntyne Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 It is hailing like crazy now! Just when I had decided to sort out my raised beds. It makes the hens run for cover, that's for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen&Lee Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Gorgeous blue sky here in Worcs - but I have to admit to be hoping for your weather Egluntine Reason being, OH is at football and in some foolish moment the other day I mentioned attacking our grass which is desperate for a mow if the weather was OK.....its really really the last thing I feel like doing today Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Becomes smug It's been nice in Budapest, about 15 degrees and mostly sunny. Just one random downpour, then it cleared up again. No I did not go on the forum whilst on holiday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 blimey, just logged on to find everyone in the midst of snow ! I've been outside in a tee shirt this afternoon.

Cate in NZ Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 It's snowing here Was nice yesterday, cold and raining yesterday evening, but a nice day on the whole. I woke to rain, but it's just turned to great, fat, snowflakes. Looks beautiful but I hope it doesn't last long. I have got to work outdoors today, I really can't put it off any longer and I really don't want to freze in the process S & I will be delighted of course, praying for it to stick so they can get out and throw snowballs at each other and drag the sledges to the local wood. Also got a football match to watch today, S's team kick off at 2, I wonder if that will be postponed if the snow continues . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 We had lovely weather this morning, some rain and sleet this evening, and this morning....SNOW Off to dig out the sledges Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 At last it is here. I am loving it. Ruari has already been out in the garden gathering up the snow. Is this really springtime Poor girls on the other hand are rather bewildered I'll gove them some treats later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 We have snow this morning Normally I'd say we love snow, but there is a time and a place for everything and I'd really rather like some sunshine and HEAT now, not snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygal Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 4 and a half inches of snow here this morning!!! Small child is overcome with excitement- we've already had a trudge down the road, then its out to make a "snowlady" her words!! after brekkie. CHickens are bemused...and I haven't even let them out of the run yet bless them poor dears. Hope if you have snow its going to enhance your day not hinder it.
