Another snowy day

Schools are closed, supermarket was packed, MrVV has taken a few hours away from his desk and we've been having family fun outside;













(^^ is my favourite picture)


The washing line ghost!! Can you see what I mean?




We buried little son but did let him out!!

The next two pics were taken by MrVV;


Our mad postie - still wearing shorts!


A neighbour & his quad bike

I think we're in for a weekend of snow & cold. The boys were both meant to be a big scout camp in Essex but the decision has been made for the troup not to go - is a 160 mile round trip and deemed too dangerous. Boys both a bit disappointed but I'm sure they'll have fun here AND they'll get to sleep in beds and not in sleeping bags!

Have a good weekend.

Postie in shorts? I'm shivering now!

We had school closures, or semi-closures, despite the fact that the snow didn't actually come when forecasted. A very odd day...

Your photos are lovely.
