Who had fun in the snow today?

As the SE came to a stand still, I bet some of us made good use of our ski wear and equipment Very Happy Very Happy

With an unexpected day off work as the school was shut I had a very lazy day and didn't set foot outside the door. My son was most disappointed that his school wasn't closed and his wicked mum sent him in though. Razz Razz

Dona - that's a bummer, he could have had so much fun. Mine have built a very realistic 6 ft snowman that is a bit spooky now it's getting dark Exclamation

Only problem is that it looks like we have just come back from BG with all the piles of wet ski wear Sad

To be fair living in Portsmouth we didn't get much but he went up the hill nearby after school to play in it so didn't miss out completely .... my lovely friend volunteered and I bit her hand off lol Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Hmm
I spent twenty minutes digging out my car, then struggled to drive the 7 miles to school (took me 1 hour 20 minutes) ... and it was closed.
Someone rang home to tell me at 8am, but I was almost there by then. Not stirring tomorrow till I know for certain it's open!

re: Who had fun in the snow today?

Think you may still get snow tonight, Ian - it's heading north. You'll be washing that ski wear AGAIN Very Happy

Tomorrow is likely to be worse with ice, so take care those of you heading out to BG soon - no broken bones Surprised

re: Who had fun in the snow today?

I didn't - here in mid Gloucestershire it was only sleet all day. It was starting to snow properly and sticking a bit earlier this evening, but it's stopped now.

Part of me really wants more so I can have a day off, but the other part of me doesn't want to get all the clean skiwear out now I am getting ready to pack it!!!

My Kids used our recycling bins like sandcastle buckets to make a massive wall right across our close, about 8 feet high. Milkman didn't see it and reversed into it. Doh !
