Still not enough snow for skiing at Cairngorm.http://www.cairngormmountain.org/lifts-pistes/ They've only had sufficient snow on a handful (literally) of days this year. A bit here https://weather.com/en-GB/unitedking...otland-weather

They'll be keeping their fingers crossed for a good Easter.

Meanwhile, back in Cornwall a reasonable day with just a couple of brief showers & sunny spells, good visibility and much calmer sea conditions - especially on the south coast. Swell down to 6-8' even out at Sevenstones..

Around Marazion piles of weed washed up after the 1st big sea of the winter.

I lived at the foot of an hill on a farm years ago. We found an old car boot or bonnert lid from the days when those things were curved and used it quite successfully on a frosted grass slope to frighten ourselves severely enough to last us a year or so.

We used to go cardboard sledging down the grassier parts of the dunes. Pleased to see the activity still exists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OPR_MJUkUI

Beats me why they have to close when there is no snow. Sliding down grassy slopes was a major event every summer holiday in the 1960's.
