You remember that I was bemoaning the lack of snow?

Well, at 3.15 I went into a meeting and it was sunny outside. Two hours later I came out and (obviously it was dark)there was a blizzard outside (an English Blizzard not a High Plains White-Out), but the ground was wet and nothing was sticking other than on the laurel bushes across the road.

In the 10 minutes it took me to nip to the little civil servants' room and make a fresh coffee, the road and pavements were covered in snow which shows every sign of staying.

I'd say we've had an inch in 20 minutes. That's going it some by British standards.

Wooo hoo!

It's your fault!

Did it come with thunder and lightning? We have the blizzard with a thunder and lightning storm. It's bizarre.

I'm glad you are happy with the snow. I would be too usually. Have fun in it.

Dunno about the thunder and lightning! I was in an acrimonious meeting with my boss at the time, so anything potentially ballistic was lost on me for two hours.

I think it was an honourable draw, BTW. :-D

Yeah... blizzard! Thunder! Lightning!

Good thing: I work from home.

Bad thing: I must leave the house tomorrow to see my accountant. What fun.

Alas the snow's not deep enough and has since turned slushy before freezing solid.

Apart from which the people in the office don't take me that seriously at the best of times... making snow angels really wouldn't help my cred.. :-)

Mind you, if it's still snowy at the weekend... ;-)
