Good morning all We've had a couple more inches overnight but the sky looks full of it! I'm working at home today. By the way, don't want to mislead anyone - I'm not a teacher, I work for a social work team! If you think schools get Ofsted'ed, you should see what Ofsted does to us !!!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I didn't realise that, Dove, I bet that is some inspection. We have QAA, they do the auditing for all the academic stuff and systems at the uni, a nightmare when they come, so much paper work required.
Road fine here, but I have to come over the hills from Yorkshire, it can be a bit hairy when it snows. Boss thought it would be a good idea to do my 'interim' appraisal 2 -3 pm. Grrrr.
We had some flakes of snow just before bedtime, and I was expecting to wake up to significant snow.
But only about an inch has fallen overnight. The previous forecast of '4 hours of heavy snow' for this morning, seems to have been downgraded to a dry morning, with light snow this afternoon.
Been down to the bottom of the garden- it is snowing- airport closed - forecast on now- still saying the same- we are still going to die and there may be more on Sunday
About a couple of ins. of show, still falling lightly and on the wet side. Was lying in bed contemplating getting up when the most awful noise like thunder, only scrapier, was right overhead. I sent OH who was dressed to investigate. He announced, A tree's fallen down. Where? said I. Outside, came the reply. Whereupon the noise came again. Got up to find out something sensible and found a large branch from one of next door's tall conifers has fallen on to the roof right above my bed and was sliding down hence the scrapey noise. Waiting for light to see if any damage.
Oh not nice Flo. One of the slates from above our bedroom slid down one yr, so I know about the noise!!
We've only had a dusting of snow. Daughter has made it safely from SLancs to nearer central Manchester. All being well she'll be leaving after the school runs so getting home, & so to bed, shouldnt be too bad. J.

Morning
It isn't snowing yet so we are venturing to Sainsburys at 7am and will hopefully be back home before it starts.
I hope everyone who has to travel today has a safe journey and that everyone keeps warm

Morning forkers,
We had some flakes of snow just before bedtime, and I was expecting to wake up to significant snow.
But only about an inch has fallen overnight. The previous forecast of '4 hours of heavy snow' for this morning, seems to have been downgraded to a dry morning, with light snow this afternoon.
So won't be building any snowmen today.

Morning, I think. Still rather dark.
About a couple of ins. of show, still falling lightly and on the wet side. Was lying in bed contemplating getting up when the most awful noise like thunder, only scrapier, was right overhead.

Geoff, I think you are going to get it worse than us,good luck. Ate the crooks all tucked up?
