For once the weather got it right predicting severe weather for the area and on waking up this morning all you could see was snow and lots of it.

Being in the UK that means schools are closed, airports are closed, roads blocked, mass disruption to public transport amongst other things as we simply aren’t prepared for any of this.

Personally I love the snow and wish we had it more often and for longer. I’d already decided last night that I wouldn’t work today and would set about building a snowman which I haven’t done for years.

Our pets don’t quite know what to make of all this, especially the rabbits who ventured out for 30 seconds and ran back into their nice warm hutch.

The cat walked slowly across the path with her little feet buried in the snow until she thought it was too cold and decided to run straight back in.

Later I walked around the lake and took some pictures which you can see in the Gallery section.
