Yep, we have quite a bit of snow here in Bucks, and still more coming down.
Took daughter to bus stop this morning at 7am, and the school phoned at 7.30 to say most Bucks schools are shut. So she came home....

She's ecstatic - a 'snow' day which co-incides with a French exam! Yey!
Oh to be eleven again!

Fantastic isn't it? We have had about 3 inches where I am in the Cotswolds and it is still snowing. My daughter and I will be building a snowman later.

Brings out the inner child!
We've got about the same amount - and it's still snowing! Ages since that's happened. Yey!

Its the main topic on GMTV!
3 reporters out in England commenting on 4-6" of snow!
I too am in Central Scotland and here 6" is normally counted as just a flurry!
I remember getting up one morning and there was a snowdrift where my car should have been. I dug it out, scraped it off and started it up, opened the bonnet to put screen wash in, only to find that the snow had swirled up and filled the whole engine compartment.
Still made it to my work on time!
@ 04:30am it's fun skidding around the parking lot! LMAO!

I know, us southern softies are all wimps, but we don't get much snow....so we get all excited when it does come.....I do remember when we lived over on the Welsh border that we were snowed in (with 'real' snow for a weekend, without electricity. Was fun for the first 24 hours......
