On the 7th of December…..there’s no business like snow business!

Sorry for the snowy pun, but the large (for N Ireland) snowfall yesterday has greatly impacted on today.

For the first time in my memory, schools have been closed due to the snow and ice. We just don’t cope at all well with any sort of change to our normal weather. Somehow other nations manage to keep going but we grind to a halt and local government and local councils are still arguing, 10 days on, about who should be responsible for gritting/salting/clearing the pavements.

Enough of the moaning, here are some of the more pleasant aspects of a snow day:

Ssshhhh!

We have a robin in our garden

Who needs an indoor Christmas tree, when nature can provide this?

and a few more of my own wee snow man!

I also made a pavlova with my middle daughter for her birthday tomorrow, and she was amazed at how easy it was, and maybe even a little disappointed! The washing up took longer than the mixing, so she no longer be impressed by pavlova! However, she is still looking forward to eating it tomorrow evening. Photos to follow.

See you tomorrow, I hope.

Keep those comments flowing!
