lol great ian, made me laugh, was the same here, i had to take joe to college and was so scarey, wont be going out again in this ian thats for sure unless i walk :o)) take care

made me laugh to Ian........just frosty down here on south coast although they say we may get some snow today.....as i have a stinking cold im keeping in the warm..........

Best place for you both, nice and warm indoors. We had to go to T...o's for some essentials and it took half an hour to do the 5 miles there and an hour to get back! It's even deeper now and still snowing hard. :~((

stopped here ian for now at least, joe will walk home he said, has his army boots on and well wrapped up :o))

Isn't our Ian a card.......lol :o)))

If I was a card I'd have turned into papier mache (sp?) by now!

hahaha then you could be a tobby jug lol

Lol!Great blog Ian. Still no snow down here take care everyone!

Is that a TOBBY jug or a TUBBY jug San Lol
Sue, I hope you don't get it as bad as we have!

lol ian haha

lol ian gave me a chuckle that did could just imagine it ,:o)))

Well done on getting Holly to school Ian, it`s day one for us as well although daughter was in yesterday for teacher training, not too bad here at the moment,snowing all morning but sunny now, even a bit of blue showing..So called experts predict it could last for a couple of mth`s so better book your sled and dog`s now,lol.........

oh no sue, i go away in two weeks, hope its gone by then, manchester airport closed today ;o((

Sandra I`ll keep fingers crossed for you....

cheers sue x

Iwont be going out till its gone again.

Holly's school is closed until further notice! :~((
Two weeks off and back for one day and then they go and close it again. Poor kids are going stir crazy!

Ian, hope the weather will be better...Take care...xx

joe sent home from college at 2 said the head wouldnt close but in the end he had no choice, hardly any tutors and kids were fed up no lessons, so will ring in morning to check

My youngest does not go back till Thursday but I am going to ring tommorow just to check as I think the office staff may be in.

Thank Uma, the temp. is falling faster than a stone at the minute (-5/6 expected) so I can only imagine what it will be like by the morning!

I would keep him off it's to far to walk San. You don't want him getting stuck! :~((

Mavis, I think you have it worse than us don't you? I've got to get my mum-in-law home to Northumberland on Thursday, what are the main roads like up there?

Hi Homebird, I love watching the kids enjoying themselves in the snow. A group were playing around us and one of them threw a snowball towards another group who were stood under a tree. The second group started jeering because it was obviously going to high, until it hit the tree and all the snow fell off the branches and covered them! :~)))))

no more snow at moment ian but doesnt mean to say it wont start again in night, will see how things are in morning

:0( Snow has made it to the south started half an hour ago and now it's all white may need your dog and cat team down here Ian!! had a burst pipe at teatime :0(( Steve got caught up on M3 on the way home so I've been paddling in about in 3 ins of very cold water Pipe now fixed and cleanup done just hope not to much damage done to utility ( Brick built outbuilding in the garden )Thank goodness it was not in the house!!!!!

oh poor you sueb, glad its fixed now. they said it was heading south, my brother is due some to in berkshire

Oh no Sue what a disaster! I hope everything goes all right for your utility!

Yes, we've finally had snow here Ian. The roads are really bad tonight. Lloyd(my youngest) and his mates wer due to be playing in a pub in St Albans tonight but I wasn't happy about him driving there but fortunately the pub cancelled it as the other band couldn't get there!
I've just put a blog up, also, of the snow when I took Paddy for a walk this afternoon.

Crikey, Sue. Just as well it was outside. Watch out thogh, it will be very slippery now with all that water!

Hi Ian digs v2 The roads are pretty bad as I am sure you have seen on the news but if you take care you should be fine.I think some councils are selecting which roads to grit as salt is getting low. Sorry to leave it till tonight to let you know but the lads had to use the computer for school work safe journey Ian.

Thanks Mavis, Mum has decided to stay for a few more days! ;~)))))))))

I think that might be the best idea Ian , I have kept my youngest off school until Monday, even though his school is one of the few that are open.

It might be the safest idea but I still can't understand why she can't use her broomstick? Lol

Now Now! You know you'll need the broomstick to sweep all this snow up!!!!

joe listened to radio this morning as told by college, and it said his was closed again today, then at 3pm he got an email why did you not attend college today joe. "WHAT" im fuming with them, not his fault they cant make up their minds is it, he has never missed a day in almost two years of being there, grrr

Bl...y idiots! Will you be on the phone in the morning then San?

Paul, why can't she do a 'sweep past' (as opposed to a fly past) before she goes?

oh yes i will ian, aparently a freinds daughter went but all her tutors didnt turn in hah! so no lessons for her, so why dont they say one way or another, i bet lots didnt go in because of info on radio

Give 'em hell San!

lol i will ian no worry there, he has 100% attendance which is now ruined, i feel for him as he works hard to get great results to, i will sort it out and make sure this doesnt go down on record.

Some people have nothing better to do than upset others!

very true ian.
