It's Arrived!

 These were taken in my garden yesterday. While most of the country was covered in the white stuff it seemed to missed here completely.

Even this primrose that I've shown you before here hadn't seen any frost since I last showed you it in November. That snail hadn't finished it off either!

 Spring really looked as though it was beginning. Bulbs are shooting

Snow? -  it seemed very unlikely.

But at last it's arrived, so here are the obligatory snowy pics of my back garden today!

No longer looking like a messy wintery flowerbed, now nice white fluffy pom-poms!

 See that nice smooth white patch on the ground?



How could I resist? ;)

  4. Blimey - that is a lot of snow 'yay!'

    We've had none today, but I think that's all going to change from tonight.

    Have a fabulous weekend and enjoy the snow,

  10. winter is such an interesting season, the way it changes daily. Spring is so far away for us. I think we are one third into winter.... so i will think of sliding through the woods on skis....

  12. I think the only place to escape the snows are the south west tips of Cornwall (maybe Plymouth). I am not sure whether to feel glad or sorry for them. Doesn't the snow make everything look good?
