We lived a little further north from where you are, in Essex, and it was one of those parts of the country that generally escaped the worst of the winter weather - much to our annoyance as kids. The weather forecaster would promise snow the following day, and we'd jump out of bed early and rush to the window hoping to see sights similar to those that you've posted, only to be (generally disappointed). And invariably, so it seemed to us as we watched the news later that day, everywhere in Britain would be covered with snow, apart from that one temperate pocket which we happened to be living in. Schools would be closed - except ours of course - snow ploughs would be out (except in Essex) and children would be building snowmen and throwing snowballs (except where we were).<br /><br />So make the most of the snow. I always think it's wonderful to see the countryside transformed, and actually, you're quite lucky to see snow in December (and in Sussex for that matter, which again, is one of those warmer English locations). I'm really quite envious.Paul Nixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12354531380984476532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099822287006472886.post-30855628773909204842009-12-19T19:39:45.570+05:302009-12-19T19:39:45.570+05:30hey .. know your post is not really about this but...hey .. know your post is not really about this but sleep undisturbed from 2 am till 8 am ... that would be a dream come true for me .:-)...Nidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16573982276026445974noreply@blogger.com
