Morning from East Dorset. No weather here so far today.
Gary, my sister claims she always told her boys that the ice-cream van chimes meant it has run out. They will probably be telling the same to their children come the summer!
Spotted the snowdrops pushing up on dog no. 2's grave, also two robins side by side on a branch so nature is thinking about Spring

The ice cream chime thing is an old joke-but can't remember where I heard it first-I have mentioned before the old Morecambe and Wise clip
So last Sunday's prediction on Countryfile weather looks like it is coming true-proves the point I have been banging on about about starting stuff to early-so yahboo and sucks to those doubters
Expect endless clips of snowbound vehicles,school closures, Britain grinds to a halt etc-the usual annual celebration of media frenzy

Have a good day everyone.
Coming up on Sky News shortly... Paul Mckenna (the hypnotist) telling people how they can lose weight, just by thinking.
Actually plugging his new book, which makes people believe they have a gastric band...

It's cold and dull, but I suppose you all know that. Nothing going on yet.

You really do need to put something on, at least trousers, to avoid frost bite.
