C'mon guys ...don't hate the snow...for a little while it turns even the ugliest of landscapes into wonderland and lifts the spirits of children and older folk...it hides the depressing looking mud and brightens the skyline...sure its a pain having to cope with it and when its melting its horrible...but would you rather have endless rain?

Nature needs a good cold spell every now and again and for sure we will all enjoy the Spring and Summer much more when they arrive...even if its just because it isn't snowing and the air feels warmer!

Anyway...we're smallholders...a hardy breed...capable of coping with anything that nature can throw at us...even if it is because we simply don't know any better!!

Your right Farmer, at least it hides the mud and for a day or two I get clean eggs.

Majority of our snow has gone overnight so I can now see my small winter veg patch!

Mud everywhere but the ditches we dug yesterday have at least kept most of the water away from the house.
