SNOW - But only just

Being big kids, and with no weddings today, we were really excited by the prospect of snow, and were glued to the weather forecast all day yesterday.

Well, the snow did come, but not exactly with a vengeance here in Leeds. All we seemed to see on the news were roads in northern England under gorgeous, photogenic drifts. Er, hello??? We're in northern England and we had approximately one inch of the white stuff. It's not quite the same when the kids have to clear half the garden to make one snowball. Still, before it (very rapidly) melted I was able to get a few nice shots - it was hardly a picturesque alpine scene, though. When I were a lad, we got 6 feet every winter etc. etc..........
