    Well while I sat here typing we had a beautiful snow flurry, large flakes blowing in a strong wind, boy its cold but beautiful, the sun is out between the snow showers..... I need to go for a walk I'll have to wrap up ... SDW hope you don't get too much if they are indeed snowclouds...

    As long as it stays above our village I don't mind at all as the mountains look beautiful with it on (although it will just be more, they are snow-covered already).

    Don't want it coming down to 1050 metres though otherwise our village will be covered.

    Guess its cold all round then. The South East issued a severe weather warning for tonight at lunchtime. I shot out, visited Mum, and got milk and bread and now I am not going out till its gone. Hope it misses you all, I am in trouble I think.

    Cold in North Wales, too, but just flurries of snow - not sticking!

    Had a walk around Cheshire Oaks Outlet Village today while DH took car in for a check. So cold there. WE had intended to see Invicticus on Orange Wednesday, but the next showing was at 5 and it was far too cold to hang about.

    Came home and sorted car insurance and house insurance. Excellent offers with SAGA at moment.

    Just had a wonderful weekend's ski in South Wales for the rugby!

    Fantastic! I was there, but I still can't believe we won.

    Good catch up with friends, too.

    I'm sure many here were friends, forum-wise of Ed.

    Apparently she has passed away recently - she will be missed.

    She'll be sadly missed.
