We have snow!
Now I know for some of you, snow is not a big deal but here in the UK, it is. It causes chaos most of the time. I love to look out on it but just wish it feel in the gardens & fields & not on the roads & pavements.
If you are not in the UK, do tell us what it is like when you get snow.
