    Snow in the South!

    We actually have snow today, when most of the rest of the country does not!!

    It is all across the South West, and it has been snowing heavily for some hours. No ice though, so driving isn't too bad at all.

    Just a real hard frost over here in Norfolk. It's got a skinhead and flick knives. I've even seen a bit of it dressed in hoodies.

    Think we just had heavy hail here. Decided to be ultra cautious and not come in on the bike. Not happy

    I go up to a very light dusting of snow - looked like someone had sprinkled some sugar on the cars - it melted by 8am

    Just hard men and women up here hehe!!!
    Not soft like you Southerners, one bit of snow and the whole world has to know about it and if the temp drops to 9 Celsius well the price of Gas goes up good job we still burn candles up here to keep warm (cheaper than gas and we can make them ourselves out of animal fat and a bit of string).
    Coal sacks for bedding and sheets lovely and cosy pah!! you Southerners don't know your born.

    Plenty fell in Cheshire and Lancashire yesterday, and settled and froze nice and hard overnight.
