LOl Yg. I used to stock up with loads at Xmas and have loads left over so now I only buy what we need.

I did too LG but I learnt my lesson!! The shops are only closed on Christmas Day now anyway and I have a very economical Christmas as far as food is concerned.

I buy just a very few little treats mainly for the kids, Usually they are so full up from a decent dinner that they end up taking some stuff home with them.

It maybe unused much of the time true, but I think it would be a worthwhile investment, just remind the public what it was like being stuck at home, day after day, when you tell the local government that you would like some snowploughs PLEASE.

Ours stand still from April to Oct, last year they were hardly used at all.

SORRY but I would of thought the areas with snow, like yorkshire and that area would have them, but I guess not. Never mind, just stay in and keep warm by the fire.

That's a good idea RMS, I could leave the Brownies to their own ends NOT !! LOL. They would reek havoc LOL

I'm off to snuggle under the duvet and keep warm now!!

Nite nite, sleep well LG. Enjoy your afternoon/evening RMS x

Nite nite YG Sleep well, catch you again soon I hope. ps. How are your furry friends coping with the cold ? Our two are sulking LOL

lol LG, my furry friends are sulking too! They did run out last night before bed and it was hilarious watching them! Two minutes and they were back!!!

We have had a lot of snow overnight and there is no way I am venturing out. I haven't heard a vehicle go past since going to bed last night and no buses. Looks like a good six inches has fallen and it is still coming! We normally miss the worst of it here being in a valley but it has sure got us this time!!

Stay warm and take care everyone today.

You're up early YG.

Don't even try to go out, it isn't worth it.

Stay at home - safe and warm.

morning all
you beat me lol i was just waiting for a text from school Andrew has gone in but we have had at least another 6 inches here I am hoping we are off though we dont get paid .i have just made a list to keep busy
RMS most of us keep well stocked at home with food but they will always panic buy around here

Very true Maz, as soon as someone says that something is in short supply...........it flies off the shelves.

it is really stupid some of the locals cant cope without being in town everyday regardless .I am still waiting to see if there is no word soon i think we will be in .the forcast is not good though at all

I'm surprised your school is still open Maz, it must be the only one.

am still waiting all the others are off Bishop schools are not on the website yet lol we were the only one open on monday

well, you made it to the news! Very impressive snow all the way down to Portugal.

DON'T LEAVE HOME UNLESS YOU HAVE SNOW TIRES AND A PLACE THAT YOU HAVE TO GET TOO.

Ooooooh, are we famous now?

I won't be going anywhere for a couple of weeks at this rate.

Good morning (and Evening to RMS who ought to be in bed!)

We had another 3 ins over night. We had intended to do the weekly shop (not panic buying - lol) but I can't work out if the grit lorry has been on the main road. I can normally see if traffic is passing from a bedroom window, but nothing did while I watched. At least the milkman got through from the depot about 5 miles away, bless him.

'My' school closed early yesterday and is closed today. PC stayed over night at her b/f's, but that was planned. With her track record with prangs, I'm glad she didn't drive. Her next shift is tomorrow. It might be best if she stays there again as it's closer and in a built up area so more likely to get the gritters out.

For RMS - she was packed off yesterday with a blanket and shovel, extra clothes and wearing her flowery wellie boots!

Hope Maz does have another snow day. Even if it were open, I bet half the chiidren wouldn't go in.

Your right I should be Night Nite see you tomorrow ------ today ----------- later

Sleep well RMS

I am off been out though to post box and dug out to the rabbit again walking its quite nice really and not too cold yet its the fine powder we used to get in germany
