We had about 3" - 4" of snow here. It was lovely to see it falling - I kept sneaking upstairs to look out of my sewing room window across to Next Door's outside light. At one point the snowflakes were coming down like 2 bob bits.
I went up to bed at 10, shut the cats down here so I could get an uninterrupted night's sleep for once, and was still awake at 1.30 . . .
Sorry it's not very sharp. View at the end of our track.
A bit too cold to take my sewing out to the summerhouse today . . .
No cats sitting on the side lawn today!
Last night it looked so mysterious out there, with the trees delineated with snow, and rooves blotted out. Snow lay deep on the tops of hedgerows and if it had kept on snowing I think we'd have had double the fall we did. The A470 was closed at the Storey Arms (that's just below Pen-y-Fan) and the A483 was closed near Crossgates by a crash, whilst a slewed lorry (and doubtless lots of snow further on) closed the A44 near Llangurig.
Not much planned for today. Some more Richard III and Church book reading, x-stitch and History Hits tv. I am up to date with series 7, part 2 Outlander now . . . Will Claire survive the bullet - and the operation to remove it? I've got the toppings from the freezer for my teatime pizza, and a fresh loaf from yesterday. I'll not starve. Several people have reported that supermarket shelves were cleared yesterday, ahead of the snow. Bread and milk I don't doubt.
How have the rest of my UK readers fared?
