Too bad it had to happen in the holidays, eh? I bet they would have closed the schools for this. It was absolutely tipping it down with snow early this morning, but by about 9-ish it had all settled. This is what it looked like from my bedroom window:

I wasn’t going to bother going out, because I’m wimpy and I don’t like getting wet and cold, but then some of my friends turned up all excited (well, okay, it was mostly my friend’s younger brother and my friend’s younger sister, but hey, who isn’t excited when it snows?) so I tramped out and we messed about in the snow. After that, a couple of friends and I walked down to the wood and…uh…walked through it. The snow was really pretty there. Here’s some photos:

I have a feeling that the header image of my blog was taken in exactly the same wood last time it snowed, which was about a year ago (January ‘07, I think). We went down and did exactly the same thing…ah, how times change.
