Lovely Weather We're Having

The last couple of days in the area have been very frosty. No really. See how white it all is? Frost.



Only, yesterday the snow kicked in as well. Now before you make mock, keep in mind that most of England doesn't get a lot of snow on a regular basis, and the South West very rarely. This is the second time in nearly 7 years I've seen a significant amount of snow on the ground. So I'm working from home. In fairness, I wandered out the front about half an hour ago and no one has even thought about trying to get their car out. Not from my road, anyway.

I'd say I was staying safe, except that I slipped on the stairs earlier and fell down. No major damage, but I've definitely jarred my back a bit. Flatmate's second response was, "Are you OK?" Her first response was, "Well that was clever." Funnily enough she got told to fuck off.

Ooooh, spot who's in a bit of a mood.

Anyway. Here is my back garden as of 8.30 this morning.

That's it, I'm moving in with you.

Oh, how beautiful!

Living vicariously through your pics, since I've moved somewhere where it NEVER ever snows.

(I grew up in a mountain state and got snow every winter. *sniff*)

Oooo on the pretty snow. All of ours melted days ago.
Ouch on the fall *purposely does NOT pull out pain chart in an attempt to be funny*

Ugh. I'm really not good with the idea of icy roads and paths. *shudder*

Sends you some of our heat.

AH well, at least we haven't had any snow yet in our winter. What, you say? It's meant to be summer in NZ? Tell that to the weather;/

Boo on the back (and the flatmate!). Take care out there and hire a minion if you need too;p Also, I would think gently closing the door for the flatmate while saying "Well, I'm just going to shut this till you're absolutely ready" could work?
