Overall very dissapointing so far. Any snow falling melts faster than can
be topped up. It practically snow all through the night here in SE
London, by noon all bar a few high sheltered north facing patches
survived. Now there was some talk of substantial showers tonight, but
checking the radar I don't think so. I fear that's it for some snow cover
that will at least last a day.


But it's all still better than what we've had previously in this crap
winter!

Victor just opening up my fridge for some milk is


"better than what we've had previously in this crap
winter!"

Still disappointent and no words can/will console me. I went to sleep last
night and dreamt it had rained and all that lovely settled snow had gone!
I wished somebody had taken my dreams!

Hi Lawrence,
This new era we live in is obviously caused by the Media. Media put Mrs.
Headmistress on front page, Media blame the Government for not laying down
the rules.
People get pushed....People get brain washed... people are weak.. people are
gullable.. people don't think.. It's easy.
Don't know about other countries but their is only one government in this
country made up from lots of groups from lots of areas.
The Media 'dictate' . End of ...
If you don't like it, only watch Sky, and don't buy newspapers.
That is not to say governments are perfect! ;0)
I ain't that gullable.. haha (or am I!) ;0|

Very sad for all the excited kids that nearly all snow had gone by lunch
time. The joke of it all in this mad world of safety and legislation my
friends wife is a deputy head mistress at a junior/primary school in
Downham, they were instructed not to let the children outside at playtime
due to the risk element oh and another thing that same friend couldn't get
the train from Grove park station Downham due the the bad weather!
It really does make me sick. I've now made my mind up which way I'm voting
next election.

Here, more out in the country, we had something similar, but this teatime
a few heavy snow showers covered the roads, grass and roofs and then we
got a decent frost. It all looked very good as the sun went down and I've
just been out for a walk (22.30 hrs) - there are sparklingly frosty paths
and roads, which really *crunch* underfoot, fields white with snow under
the full moon (with bow), and practically no breeze.

All-in-all, it's a traditional winter's night here. It does me good to
see it again.
