Narnia


It truly was like Narnia out there today. Hubby and I tried to get to work then I got a call to say school was closed (yippee!) Hubby got stuck in standing traffic on the M62 and eventually made it back home.

I know almost everyone in the UK is having a 'snow day' and we must sound like awful wimps to people who experience this sort of weather on a regular basis but please indulge us, it doesn't happen to us very often!


After having homemade vegetable soup for lunch we put on our boots and went for a walk.

It had been snowing since 6am and only stopped about teatime.

We met some interesting creatures on our walk.



Follow the country code and close all gates behind you.
Then as my nose was starting to feel chilly we thought we had better make for home.
I hope all of you have had a nice day if you have had an unexpected day off work and school. Sorry if the snow has made your day a nightmare, remember it doesn't happen very often!

  5. Beautiful photos. Glad you were able to enjoy your snow day. We've only a couple of inches here from before Christmas so enough to look nice but not be a nuisance.

    Happy New Year to you, all the best for 2010,

    Anne.
