Hi Carol,

The wind has got up a bit here (Essex) and it's coming from the East, so snow is on the cards.... I certainly know what it's like to be cold now... still have no heating.

You'll have to build a round house in your garden and stoke up a nice big fire in the middle!!!!

that means well have snow at the same time as Carol

No snow here yet (and I'm on high ground), but it's very cold. No gritters out, so it's BOUND to snow!!

Does anyone know why councils don't grit pavements? I would have thought encouraging people to walk rather than take their car would be useful in icy weather. They never grit the pavements, and rarely grit the roads round where I live so the bus doesn't run and pedestrians take their lies in their hands trying to walk on the pavements whilst watching out for sliding cars!!

hope we get just a light sprinkle so little grandson can see and touch it for the first time...then it can go by lunchtime,,,,,,,,

Tina , you have my sympathy , I am in the same boat and it's no joke.

Hope you are OK

Maggie,

I read somewhere that if you fall over on a gritted surface you can sue the local auhtority but if its on an untreated surface then 'its an act of God'' and you cant...might be urban myth mind you

well i want at least 2 foot of it..........then i can play.lol.xxx

I want a shedload too!! My Mum said that when I was little and saw my first snow I called to her "Come quick Mum, there's all white feathers coming down" Awhhh - ain't that sweet!!

Mother goose shaking out her feathers Ann........lol

I bet we don't get much snow because the gritters are out........lol
