    Woo! Fantastic photos 🙂

    I'd been up and returned to be with hot tea and the cats when the door bell rang… 3 very polite little girls asking if I had a sledge (they knew I had) and if so could they possible borrow it. How could I refuse!
    Waiting for the phone call from their Mum to apologise for their cheek 😉

    At first I thought this was a post about badmouthing other teams in cricket and then no, it was about squeeeeeeeeee and brrrrrrrr and whizzzzzzzzz.

    It was dark when dBoy got home from a chess tournament last night and the snow was barely 10mm thick but we still had to get out there bc he has had brand new TWO sledges waiting to be used since Decemeber.

    Very serious indeed. And a lot of fun, by the looks of things. We've been pelting one another with snowballs here!

    You kind of look like you're enjoying it! Hope it stays around for a while as it makes a nice change from the grey murkiness we had before.

    It has been the sort of day when living in the flat lands is a bit of a nuisance! Is that enjoyment or anxiety in the top pic?
