Batton down the hatches and get the emergency shower curtains out to protect the Chooks!

Brilliant news

 

Thanks Christian!

We love the snow! Two inches will certainly be enough to bring the whole country to a standstill, though.

Just telling Mikey, he's calling his mum and dad who are visiting my parents...suggesting they go tomorrow not thursday. Better get the shopping organised and get my thermals out

 

Love chaos so long as everyone is safe

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!

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!

[Mel (& Paul)]

I'll think positive warm thoughts for you my dear

[The Dogmother]

I've got no excuse for not turning in - I live 5 mins walk away from work

[Christian]

But I love snow!!!

 

not fair!!!

[Mel (& Paul)]

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

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

[Linda]

Now that really would be worth sharing with us!!

[Cinnamon]

YAY!!!

I love snow

[Jaime]

Hope the weather doesn't delay the delivery of my Eglu and new girlies - I've waited soo long to be able to order them and now I'm counting the "get-ups" - only two more. I've also been practising my chicken dance. :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

[Linda]

Woo hoo! Most of us will be joining you too. We all get excited about new eglus and chickens!

Jaine, you have to remember todo your egg dance in your dressing gown and wellies - could be interesting if it's snowing

[Chicken Licken]

How cold is too cold for the chickens please - it was nearly -3 when I got home from work today and the girls were tucked up in the eglu and not even burbling - any suggestions anyone.

[Jaime]

I was wondering the same thing - they are predicting -7 overnight here at weekend.

[One Man Banned]

oh gosh!

 

And I have left Geri at home in the middle of a moult in this kind of weather - what kind of chicken-daddy am I !?!

 

Still they are being well looked after by their foster parents this week, who spoil them rotten!!
