Sod it!

As ever it seems, sods law has prevailed and the promised heavy snowfall is yet to be seen here! We have a light dusting, pathetically light and that's it, nothing worthy of boots or a sledge. Pah.

It's a funny thing me and snow, when I lived in London, it snowed in Scotland, when I lived in Scotland it snowed in London, when I lived back near London, the significant snowfall was back in Scotland and now, having moved to Cambridge, the snow is in London! I'm beginning to think sod's law is gunning for me!

That said, the snow has given me much entertanment over the last twenty four hours, if you are a snow-a-holic like me and you Twitter (surely you Twitter?!)check out the thread #uksnow, moment by moment snow reports, news and images from likeminded mad people snowlovers around the UK. :o)

So, it's back to hoping, the forecast still promises more today, though less than it did and again a very significant fall for Friday......maybe sod's law will sod off just this once in my area!

You're probably right Ms BSOL, you should come back for coffee again today then, you could help Eowk make a snowman. We've had about 1.5" and it's still gently falling.

Snowing like buggery here in Durham! I hoping it stops before I have to go home... I think there will be significant snowfall tonight, everywhere.
Just call me Wincey Willis....

As you might expect, since we aren't that far from you, we only have a light dusting too. But my younger son had a nightmare drive home from work today up in Yorkshire. Took him just over four hours to travel about 4 or 5 miles, from the city centre to the suburbs where he lives. He said he had 100 miles worth of petrol when he started out, but was knocking on empty when he arrived home - and that must be a major reason for abandoned vehicles in these conditions!

Pretty stuff, for sure, but darned inconvenient at times! ;)
