Snow

I couldn't with any honesty say that I was shocked to get up this morning and find that it had been snowing. The forecasters have been telling us for days that wintry weather was coming.  But I was expecting to get a little sprinkle, not 5 or 6 cm in the garden!

Looking out the kitchen window at about 7 this morning

Marlo was unimpressed to find that his cat door was snowed up

That's proper snow, that is

Can't see out the bedroom window

Just as well The Builder thought to close it last night!

Looking across to Ankerbold Road
It was odd, though, given that the snow was blowing in from the north, that there was much less snow in Chesterfield and virtually none in the Sheffield City Centre. It was more sleet and icy rain as I walked across from the station (although it is snowing now).

Last week we were sat outside on our patio in the early evening

Don't think we'll be doing that this evening!!!
