Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Woohoo it's gone :D I hate the stuff - it looks nice but that's all.

Of course it would snow on a day that I'm off and it would wait to thaw until after I'd gritted the drive so as my other half could get her car out to go to work today :mad:

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Well it must be cold out coz I live and work in London (don't ask me why) and it actually started snowing outside about an hour ago.

Not real snow mind, just bitty snow with the odd few proper flakes that doesn't stick but just makes everywhere a bit wet.

However, this is a rare sight down here and tends to send Londoners into a bit of a panic (when we DO get proper snow, the city and transport system shuts down because they're not used to it). I heard one of my co-workers say "oh no, It'll take me two hours to get home tonight".

:rolleyes:

bless 'em!

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Here in sub-tropical Lymm I woke up at 6 a.m. to find a blizzard outside. I got in my car at 7.15 and there was 2" of snow on it and still blizzarding. When I got to Warrington, less than 7 miles away, there wasn't a bit of it to be seen and mine was the only car in the car park with snow on the roof.

My granddaughter is 6 and she has never sledged or built a snowman. My grandson is 20 and he has only sledged 3 times - when he was a little boy.

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Drat i missed the snow, just got back yesterday from a week in Tenerife. But have read on teletext that we are meant to get a lot of snow next week. Seeing is believing though.

If so I'm not sure which site it came from, I didn't make it on avatar dolls or anything.

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Heard we are to be in for some more snow over the next 2 weeks..

Tinkerbelle 28-02-2006 17:46

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
I also heard that the MET Office is predicting yet another cold snap with snow on it's way ....... I'm sure they do it just to tease poor Simon ;) lol!

I have noticed they've had a little snow in the North Yorkshire Dales , well on Ingleborough anyway ... I can see it on a clear day from my living room window :)

Dougie your the man with the 'know' is Ingleborough near Ingleton, classed as a mountain or just a large hill? Also am I correct in thinking it's were the Dales meet the Lakes?

No your wrong (again) my beautiful little fairy :) (please note I’ve never clapped eyes on her) :D :D :D Ingleborough is my favourite Yorkshire Mountain which stands at 2,373 ft. I’ve walked up it three times, twice last year and its no where near the lakes.

There use to be an Iron Age fort on the top of it. It's very cold up there and gets very windy, but if you get the chance please go up and enjoy. :) :) :)

Tinkerbelle 01-03-2006 23:07

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Thankyou Dougie, see you don't know unless you ask.

Beautiful pictures as always ...... Nearly as beautiful as me! :D

Behave, mountains never grow old, that why I spend so much time up them. Tinks if you like to walk get the old man in the car and go over. But think on it's an 9 mile round trip from Horton in Ribblesdale and about 4 from the Road above Ingleton.....:)

Tinkerbelle 01-03-2006 23:21

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Will definately have a look over that way Doug, very much doubt I'll be climbing it though, I'll just get as near as possible and admire it's beauty :)

Get yourself over to Horton in Ribblesdale and get up Pen-y-gent. Fantastic and windy. Pen-y-gent is celtic and means something like windy hill or place. worth the effort.

Tinkerbelle 01-03-2006 23:30

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
Sounds like a good trip for the school holidays to me :)

Taking of school my reception class teacher was called Mrs Gent does her name translate to Mrs Windy then? ........... :D

A 4 x 4 could be a 4 wheeled cart puled by a Shire horse. Problem solved:)

Tinks, if it's over 2000 feet in height, it's a mountain. Less than that, it's a hill.

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
YEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAA i can see loads of snow first big drop hear this winter. Must get the sledge out now. ITS PARTY TIME :D
If no one hears from me today I hit a tree and will be off to Stirling Royal Infirmary Casualty unit, and for sledging it will be worth it. This will occur with luck the sledging that is at 15:30. :engsmil:

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
i played in the back garden with the kids and then i came in an then i had to go back out and deal with some irate woman because my 4 year old threw a snow ball and it hit her in the face i could hear her shout at him and i was inside!!!

Poor lad did she scream at him! he's a 4 year old with very little sence of direction and probably could'nt get her in the face again if he was at point blank range!! (just no fun in some people!)

Aww Mummiboo, you should have said to her "you think he's bad, he learnt all he knows from me!" Then got her down and gave her a right good tea-bagging!! Whilst someone got it all on your mobile so you could show us lot :D

(WHAT!! If the teenies can do this happy slapping, why can't we :rolleyes:

Re: It's SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!
 
I hope it dosn't snow again. If we do have snow perhaps Mummiboo should warn the daft bat to stay indoors has there is a four year old about to be let loose in the snow.
Some people are absalutly pathetic.
