Got about 4" at 4pm in Blairgowrie, Perthshire.... though we started the day with a mere inch. Living where you work does have it's drawbacks.... Couldn't claim the car was stuck, seeing as works a 20metre walk away!!  >:(

Heavy snow showers on and off, but from what I hear the worst is yet to come.....tonight and tomorrow.

Built my first snow man by 10am.... and the dog loves the snow...see below!

Love the pic johnmac!  We had a light dusting in Worcestershire this morning, and then gradually got more and more during the day - there's now about a couple of inches and we are forcast to get more tonight.  Temperature has struggled to get above freezing all day so I guess we will have icy roads tomorrow - deep joy!

Love the photo, I had an ALsation years ago, she was very sweet and worried over everything. I took my dog's to a local woods as I thought it a bit more sheltered and it was great to see the foot prints of things that had been there before, I also made some snow balls and threw them, my Lab was confused as they disapeared before she could return them!!!!!

Been wet and cold here today - snowed a few times but too wet to make any difference - I want totake the german shepherd for a nice along the riverside in the morning if we get a good covering overnight - Its on the cards so we see.

London does seem to been in chaos from the news - no buses or trains - Sounds like they have what many of us rural folks are use to all the time !! ;D

A reasonable covering here in Barton - I am lucky enough to be working at one of the schools that DIDN'T close ...so been coping with over-excited teenagers all day!!

Yes, all gone here although last night was funny, I went out and bought some stuff for tea and a sardine treat for my chickens as it was cold, I then made our tea and went of to do some work and my partner said that the chikens had been in our main garden as there were foot prints everywhere,they are usulay in the top part of the garden but the gate must have swung loose.  I went out with my torch to find them huddled under a small plant so I tucked them back up in there hutch and run but it was funny to see where they had been, that's what I like about fresh snow, you can tell who walked on it before you, reminds me of my older brothers I SPY books :chook: :chook: :chook:

It's not all gone here and our lane is still covered.  Should be going to Glasgow today but a bit wary in case it turns bad again as forecast, before I get home. Think I'll maybe call off till next week.

That would have been a classic You Tube film or Photo, I had something similar a few years ago when I had a little Patterdale, I found him with his head stuck in a plastic container that did contain dog treats, he was all steamed up and he looked like a spaceman, Bless, made me more watchful over whats about, don't think my lab would get her head stuck, it's too big to get into anything.

When Belle had her puppies in August I gave her a cream carton to lick while she was feeding her one week old babies. Went back 10 minutes later to find the bitch pup with her head firmly inside the carton with barely enough room for air to get in.  She took the hugest gulp of air when I pulled her out!  Won't do that again! :o
