Snow!

London finally had snow yesterday. Which means everyone goes mad. Having been locked indoor families went out tobogganing and building snowmen. Me? I just ventured into the garden a took a few photos before it all melted. By today most of the snow had gone. It’s been a few years since snow stayed longer than a couple of days. The rest of the UK has had snow a few times already, but being so far south, and down in a valley, London gets a day of snow a year, if we are lucky.

I love snow, but I am happy for it to go the next day. I hate it when it freezes over and gets all slippery. At my age the bones don’t mend so fast or well, so I’d rather sit it out at home than venture onto icy pavements.

So, while I was excited as everyone else yesterday, I’m not too sad that it’s gone.
