See, I told you it snowed!
Okay, I know it's only a little bit, just enough to make me go out in the cold at 6.30am and take these photos.
we didn't get alot here in Woodford..it snowed quite heavy down to 600mtrs which is just a town up.....but what fun to see the flakes swirling last night...quite heavy and brr it was cold....
I want snow too!!! All we had was freezing cold winds and some hail just at the time the children were due out of school. Now the children are asking can we go to the snow for holidays. :-( Off to stoke the fire some more... Enjoy.
you are so lucky to have snow! Thanks for sharing the pictures... I will do the same for you when you are in the middle of your summer.It sure made my day cooler.
Oh how awesome! It never snows up here (ha, now wouldn't that be wild!), although we had a freak hailstorm a few months ago and it looked like snow had piled up everywhere! Still, there is nothing like real life snow to make winter feel special.
It snowed here in Melbourne too! It was so funny, the radio, tv and newspapers were going crazy, there were special warnings for drivers, and a couple of schools were closed. We just don't know how to handle it! Kind of like when it gets above 30 degrees in England - they all freak out and the roads melt and train lines buckle.
