Blackrocksrock Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 We have snow again yesterday and today and the girls are not amused and not keen to come out of their lovely dry run with the corrugated plastic on top. I need to add some plastic to the sides as I see some snow has blown in there and have some in the garage from last year so will do it today and they will be warm as toast. I am wary of going out in the car just yet as the roads are a bit bumpy looking but I am sure it will melt for the afternoon. The birds are demolishing the peanuts, sunflower hearts and fat squares in record time this morning and have had to put out fresh water for them as the bird bath water is frozen as was the girls this morning. Ugh I hate the cold. Any of you got snow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 No.....absolutely glorious here. I was fancying a cold snap and the opportunity to hibernate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Snow here too. Went for a family walk this morning and called into the butchers for saussies, bacon, etc. Just enjoyed a nice grill up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 No snow here but it's freeeeeezing . Just spent a couple of hours at the side of a rugby pitch and my feet are like blocks of ice & I can't feel them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 It's got colder here and has been drizzling. Just as well the boiler broke earlier in the week and managed to be fixed on the same day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 None here either As much as I like snow it's a good job really, I had a hen party this morning & I'm glad it was dry & calm, even if it was really cold. We didn't stay out in the garden as long as we usually would, but went inside for some lunch & a hot drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Freezing cold here today. I am waiting for snow. Lots of logs piled up by the door and keep looking at the sky. Temperature is dropping quickly, but no sign of the white stuff yet Had a look at www.Metcheck.com and it is forecast for very cold next week. Temps of 1C but feeling like -17 Also 300mph winds???? Is that a mistake. Looked at Andover as that is my nearest Town. Glad I am off and don't have to brave it next week. Supposed to be driving to Scotland though on Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Lets hope those winds are an error! Cold cold cold here, but nice & bright too. I would love a sprinkle of the white stuff,but am not holding out too much hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eeyoreshunny Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 300mph winds???? Is that a mistake. Looked at Andover as that is my nearest Town. Monday says 356 mph winds for lincoln I do hope they're wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 A little snow here but now icy rain. Hope it improves soon as we have to go out and shoot in an archery competition which is outside later this morning Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 It's been snowing lightly here but the flakes have just got bigger and thicker, and are starting to settle. I lit the woodburner yesterday! However I'm hoping this clears before tomorrow morning when I have to go to work I'm spending most of today indoors - filing, sorting out photos and making a start on the Christmas cards!

ali-s Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Snow showers yesterday which didn't manage to settle. This morning we have woken up to about 2 inches of the white stuff. The road is silent and our little lane is untouched by tyre marks. I will be getting the sledges out of the shed later and taking Natalie up to the Castle for some sledging fun. I hope we don't end up sliding into the moat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Icy rain here, I am so jealous of you guys with the white stuff - we have friends for the weekend & the children would all love it, especially with 3 dogs who all go bananas for the stuff & 2 sleds in the shed ready & waiting...

Guest Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 James was very excited when it started snowing. He told us that God had sent the snow. Then he stood by the back door and looked out and said "Thank you God for sending the lovely snow - Amen" It was very funny to hear him being so serious as he said it! He's out there now in his jammies with wellies, hat and coat trying to shovel snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazygal Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Rain here as well. Although earlier there was a very fine dusting of the white stuff, but its all gone now. I was out last night and the car temp said minus 1 at 11.30, so think it probably got even colder than that later. brrrr. Its the sort of day to stay indoors, but the kiddies have a party to go to in town later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
