    Same here Sweetpeas - we woke to another covering of snow - yuk!

    It is sort of raining but only thawing very slowly and the sky
    is really gray and heavy looking.

    Just had an email from my cousin in Australia and she is complaining as
    its 42 degrees..... :doh:

    Morning Walnut et al,

    Rained most of the night here, but a cold wind is blowing.

    Just checked Met Office forecast, no snow on the horizon !

    Seems we have been lucky.

    Morning all.

    No more snow since yesterday afternoon although it's still quite a few inches thick and doesn't seem to be in any hurry to melt, thankfully the powers that be have finally rescued us from being cut off from the rest of the world by gritting our estate road!

    I do hope people don't think we intend to get rid of a body or something when we venture out in our car today what with the blankets, spade etc.:hehe: Hel.xxx.
