    Good morning everyone,

    It looks beautiful out there but we are totally cut off by the snow. It appears to be about 9" deep on the ground and is deeper where I can see it on the plastic patio chairs - it is up to the arms on the chairs.

    It is still snowing lightly. There is no point in me going out to try and clear the path as we have nowhere to go :hehe:.

    Stay cosy and warm everyone - look after yourself jjordie. :thumb:

    Plenty of snow in MK and slippery roads all the way to Biggleswade.
    more snow coming down now and I'm not sure now if I did a good thing by coming out to work. It might takes me hours to get home if this continues.


    :skp:After all, this will have caught the authorities by surprise and all their gritting lorries and snow ploughs will be snowed in.:skp:

    How come Wazzakins gets to stay home to-day while I have to come out to work. Actually I'm surprised he has not been recalled to work because of the conditions.

    Yes, OH has gone into work, but I am afraid it'll take him ages to get home as we are expecting more snow this afternoon, so he is under strict orders to leave early!

    Its quite deep here but as usual Southern Trains are all up the chute and have been cancelled! So I am stuck at home all day looking out at the snow:mad:

    Morning all.

    Had a nice bit of snow-fall in the night and even more this morning the flakes are huge and keep starting and stopping all the time, I think we will have a couple of inches if this carries on.Hel.xxx.
