Ahhh kids are still at school here today. A day of peace without the 6 year old here. The extra snow mostly melted overnight, so just the old sludge left over still! I'm sick of the snow now.. I'll send it over to Germany if you want, Vik? :P

You guys are so lucky.

Bugger. And it's only just started. We're not due any +°C this week, and snow is expected all weekend long. I hope it's not like January where we didn't see the ground almost all month...

Flakes now. :)

Before I saw snow for the first time, I was under the impression that it fell down in spherical balls.

When I actually did see snow for the first time, I was so surprised that the flakes looked more like confetti. x)

I was amazed the first time I saw snow too. I was driving through this really heavy rain....and all of a sudden everything went quiet, and the raindrops just started.....gently falling and settling on the car....and I realised it was snow! It's a pretty awesome feeling really.

The first time I saw snow (that I remember of) was when I was about 5 years old. My mum took a picture of me making a snow angel. You know, when you lay flat on your back and move your arms and legs sideways. Hee hee, the memories. I love the first few hours of snow, it's great fun. Playing in it is absolutely awesome but driving is another story.

You have some lovely piccies there, Vik. In the top picture from the front of your house, is that your front garden? The drain looks like a frozen waffle xD

LOL!

Actually, that's a pallet - I think that's what they are called - like what they store things on in warehouses. I don't know why it's there. It's not my front garden, it's part kids playground (the bit behind the trees to the left), part farmland (like.. see where the trees are which go from the middle to the right of the picture? In front of them there's some fence posts - well, beyond that is Sauerkraut country, lol) and the rest of it is just... meadow-type wasteland.

You can't see the front garden from the shot - it's taken from high up - but our front garden is in no way as massive as that :P

Every time i look outside now, I think of waffles :P

Wow... you have access to a meadow-type wasteland. That's so beautiful =]

Yeah, I've just seen the forecast for tomorrow. Apparently North East England is getting more snow tonight. We're not getting any, just as my cold disappears too :(
