Linda Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 We love the snow! Two inches will certainly be enough to bring the whole country to a standstill, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Bet it doesnt snow in Dorset. It rarely does Which is a shame because it would be a good excuse not to have to go into work but to light the fire and drink hot chocolate Actually - who needs an excuse!

Christian Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 Two inches will certainly be enough to bring the whole country to a standstill, though. i know! I have been off work since the 30th Dec with a bad back and i'm back to work tomorrow night. Just a quick Paris for the night, but they always cancel paris flights as there are so many a day!!! I don't want to be stuck there! Wanna be at home with OH and the fire roaring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 But you cant have snow AND complain about the planes not flying because of the snow - tell you what - I'll have a word with my connection and see if he can arrange beautiful sunshine until you get home and then lots of snow so you have an excuse for a fire and a snuggle - how's that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Not in Bognor Regis - Sunniest place in the UK In the past 11 years we've only had snow twice and one of those times was the other week - it was so exciting it even managed to get 2 teenagers out of bed at 7am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
