It snowed!!!



OK, OK, so it snowed ...... why is this women acting like a big kid?

Well, we haven't had snow in at least 10 years, and it is a very rare event in this part of the UK. We have several inches of it, enough to build a snowman, enough even to make the garden look tidy, enough to make the world look like a Winter Wonderland, except it's April!!!!!


Little Bird makes a start on a Snowman, he is called Colin.

I doubt it will last long, the sunshine is peeking out! I am off to test its snowballing credentials, and iGit has dug the sledge out.....

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Thanks for dropping by to visit Zoe!

No snow in 10 years...amazing! That's quite a beautiful blanket you have there! Sounds like you got to enjoy it. I love the look of fresh fallen snow.

It looks gorgeous..... ours was all hard and pellet-like, not remotely fluffy. Enough to send the magnolia and camellias brown but not enough for a snow man(good name) or sledging....sigh.
