Just had 1200 litres of oil delivered (we used 1200 in under 3 months!!!) - thank god for that. I don't think he could have delivered tomorrow (in the snow - our house is hard to get to) and we were very nearly out of it!
Bought bit of extra milk but got the 4WD just in case...
Snowing here but not settling much yet. Our lab loves the snow too!

I watched a gurkha crash into a lamp post this morning. I love the snow and messing around in it with the car, obviously in safe spots lol.
However I did just watch the DFS truck - woo hoo my sofas finally arrived - slowly skid towards my car, to say i cacked myself was an understatement. Didn't fancy a dfs truck style spoiler.

We forced him out for a walk this afternoon. Dear God, you would think he should have wellies on. He was prancing about like a right soft lad 
Once he got used to it, he started to have fun. Especially when we threw snowballs at him and he tried to catch them in his gob

Lisa, if you had seen the fish tailing my car was doing this morning you would be the same. I was a wreck by the time I had towed his nibs car up the hill.
I retired to the house for the day. My car is officially bollox in the snow
Any comments about my driving and you will be killed

Then again, had she smiled back, I would have dared to ask if she needed any help. Smile exchange works like an ice breaker, you know. Anyway, I gave a her a benefit of doubt after much deliberation over the subject. I think it was the weather that froze her mouth to smile back. Hence i have decided to bear no grudges.Well, it has been snowing here all day today. The biggest snowflake on my windscreen was about 4 inches long
North Wales is even whiter that white now.

Almost gone here. We did get a bit of a covering, but the rain seems to have washed most of it away, for now. So unless the snow comes back, it's probably just going to be a skating rink in the morning, if it gets cold enough.
Personally, I would prefer snow than ice.
