White Christmas... Yes Or No?

[anthro-nerd]

Place your bets! Are we going to be having a white Christmas this year? (I live in hope every year!)

[emmie]

i hope not to be honest, its hard enough for me to navigate our uneven streets without snow and worse rain then ice.

[anthro-nerd]

Oh Emmie, that's not the spirit! ;-)

[emmie]

i know, but my mobility is suspect at the best of times, if i go tripping over the ice i will sooner than later incur a nasty fall, one which will be embarrassing and difficult to get up from.

[anthro-nerd]

Ah yes, well that doesn't sound good at all. Perhaps just opt for a sled... and some huskies, to help you along?

[emmie]

good idea, though im going to look a right berk sledging down Oxford Street.

[anthro-nerd]

I disagree... people have been know to get their skis out!

[Eleena]

I really love the snow, but I appreciate it makes it hard for some that can't go out in it.

[emmie]

no skis i admit, but decent boots for walking in snow/ice.

[Georgiesmum]

No, I dont think we are likely to have snow this christmas. I think we are much more likely to have bright sunshine like we have at the moment.

[dannyk13]

Definitely hope not.

[douglas9401]

For skiers I hope their slopes are white but being a normal person trying to get about and earn a living, in general, no thanks.

[naomi24]

I live in the country so nice if you're inside looking out - but apart from that, no thanks.

[aelmpvw]

white christmas? only on my christmas cards thank you

[emmie]

apart from children who may get off school if it snows badly enough so they can go play, i don't know anyone who really likes it to snow.

[Togo]

Could do without it. It looks nice on Christmas Cards, and at least makes the scruffy gardens as presentable as the tidy ones.

[mikey4444]

I hope not, as I won't be able to get to my brothers for Xmas lunch !

But from Boxing Day onward, it can snow as much as it ruddy well likes !

Not that it will here in South Wales, the chances are that it will rain, probably non-stop.

Emmie, I am that person, absolutely love to see a deep covering of snow. OK, I'm retired so don't need to go out in it, but I've got a proper 4x4 with winter tyres and winter supplies onboard. Wife loves it and has too drive for work. So there's two snow lovers.

[naomi24]

I like looking at it, sam.

[sapelesam]

The first weekend of real snow, we speed up to the Lake District and go fell walking, heaven on earth.

[emmie]

i don't mind if it doesn't turn to slush, and usually in the capital it does.
