Eve I remember some of your pictures from last year. Gorgeous!
You know in Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, when they order ice cream snow for the little boys birthday? That's what it was like a few years ago, went to bed on 4 th of Feb with nothing, woke up on the 5th (Ds1 birthday) to deep snow every where. My SIL lived 2 doors away and her grown up son and his girlfriend were walking past the garden and started a sore ball fight with the boys and then my BIL and his kids turned up and joined in. It was awesome. I'm sure it was his 6 th birthday. It was the last really good snow we had.since then it's barely covered the ground. The year before that we had tons for weeks and everyone got fed up and it started looking gross
