it starts in 2 minutes here, but I'm not expecting much from it. I hate it, it gives me chilblains and I can't drive to the shops. But as long as I have lots of food in stock and several paris of socks on, I can stand a day or two, and it does look pretty.
A fair amount here, but for now we just love watching bloke opposite nearly giving himself a heart attack shovelling snow off his beloved drive + car...nature usually removes it in couple of days ;)
I wanted snow because I have a two year old son who has never seen it and we wanted to build a snowman and do all that other kiddie stuff. Also I think it looks lovely as it's falling and then settles, but yes, it can be a nightmare afterwards !
