Snow is BRILLIANT for playing in

Not so brilliant when you have to drive nearly 80 miles return to work

My bulbs are all up and the garden is beginning to look good. I feel sorry for the folk that have had it pretty damp and miserable.

You need to move down to this part of the country, we have had zero snow this year (or last year) and I think that have only had to scrape of some very light frost on 2 occassions this winter.

Its only got down to Freezing on a couple of nights all year.
