Its days like today that I wish I was emigrating somewhere a little warmer! It's been snowing in south east england constantly since tuesday. We did think we'd make the most of it today and induldged our inner children by heading out to the yard to see how our new team member was doing

We had 11 inches when those of our staff who could get in did, as usual the roads are pretty bad but the council seem to be doing their best to clear them, snow's just too heavy! We've been getting our trucks and crews out as best we can but it's time for the snow to stop now, our customers dont need the added stress of snow on moving day too, isnt moving overseas enough to cope with!!

Does make you feel nice and christmassy though

Makes me feel cold!!

Can't wait to get back home to the Aussie summer! Only 5 more days to go (not that I'm counting )

I got snowed in yesterday, so I'm not impressed right now

Gotta love BE. Right under this thread -"snow!!" - is a thread about aircon!

Can't wait to get back to mine! Artificial cold is WAY better than the real thing

Yeah, cos you can turn it off!!

I am actually wishing i was in the snow!! Would like to 'pop over' to the UK just to have a play in it!!!!

My mum is flying out of Manchester on Wednesday morning and i am just hoping she can get to the airport ok and also not cancel the flight

I have been looking at pictures people have shared on facebook and it looks like a fair covering

I fly back on Tuesday so have been looking every day to see how it's going there. So far they have only cancelled flights within the UK and to some European cities, all other flights have been fine. Hopefully it's going to stay that way!

Thanks Wendy i hope she gets off ok she is already in a panic as to how she is going to get to Manchester airport with the roads

Well lets hope you and my mums flights take off on time

I'm hoping that the snow will have stopped by then.

To be fair, they are keeping the major roads as clear as they can. The only day there were problems for me was the day it was falling faster than it could be cleared. I've never seen so much snow fall in 4 hours!

Lets hope
I know my area is Hull and surrounds and the piccys i have seen is a fair covering I must admit i do wish i was there than here at this moment

I parked my car, then looked out of the window a hour later and couldn't see it there was at least 4 inches of snow in that time

Swap places with ya?...I'm wishing I was there at this moment Gotta get the car back to the hire company and the road is covered in ice!

Aww no thats not good
I will trade you 24 hours here for there thats all i need

No deal, it's 4 days or nothing (cos then I'll be home anyway )

My Hubby is flying out from Manchester tomorrow, and all looks ok so far. We have had a nightmare changing flight etc, but hey.....thats what you have to do to reach the goal! I love the snow, but cant wait for a bit of Ozzie sunshine....
