Snow Day, Number 2

Yesterday was the first day in the 20 years of living here that hubby and T had a 'Snow Day'! T's college along with most of the schools in Wiltshire where closed. The roads where really rather dangerous for driving and as we already have one car off the road and still waiting for an insurance claim to be dealt with (the accident occurred 31st October last year) we couldn't afford to go down by another car!



So we played Snowman and Snowcat building with my good friend Annie and her husband Richard



This is Annie making a Snow Angel



and here is one T made earlier!


Snowball fights



Today we woke up and there was even more snow! You can see in the earlier pic around the snowcat and snow man how we had kicked up the snow well you can see how much more has fallen here!



The road has been used mainly by tractors, but is treacherous as it had frozen underneath.




Tonight they forecast -5 to -10 shock!!!



I have become very sleepy, I'm not sure if its a hibernation thing, but I could sleep for England at the mo!!

Hibernating is good with weather like this, especially after all the fun you had outside. Snowball fights, it takes me back a bit. ;-)

We had a light dusting of snow on tuesday and wednesday but that was pretty much it.

Hi Libby....hibernation is good....Mr P and I are also sleeping for England, it's the snow and freezing temperatures....

Our snow has at last gone.....it rained during the night and took the whole lot away....hooooray!

Sorry to hear you had it quite bad down your way Libby, we had Thurs and Fri off school here too but it wasn't as bad as you had it! Great to see you made the most of it though, loving the snowcat, so sweet!!!
