lea75 0 Posted January 13, 2010 It started snowing the day before I went on holiday (21st Dec) and it is still snowing now!!! It hasnt thawed out at all, there are so many layers of compacted snow its horrible Normally I love the snow, but it is normally gone in a few days, we're not used to this in the U.K. lol....pushing a pushchair through the snow is a nightmare!I feel so claustrophobic not being able to go out anywhere Hopefully the weather people have got it right now and the worst is over and it will start to melt now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myladyyawo 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Whats really weird is it seems that we've traded weather cycles Lea Normally we have that much snow here during the winter and all we've had is rain except maybe 4 days total with snow fall and those days aren't together either. I know what you mean about pushing a stroller threw the snow it's just impossible. You can add an hour of just struggling to your time to get to places. But even with kids walking it takes about 5 times longer than normal. It makes it really hard to get places with Children if you are walking. Store up on a lot of stuff for meals then enjoy being snowed in for a couple days. Your kids can't go to school in that weather can they? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lea75 0 Posted January 14, 2010 the kids were off school for a few days last week and my son was off the beggining of this week, but they are back in school now...even though I think the snow is worse now than it was when they were closed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kasijab 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Its hard to believe that I am only 120 miles away from Lea but have no snow now...we did have, but it rained all day on Sunday and washed it all away and we've had no more since. Its frosty this morning but dry thank goodness. I really HATE snow ...and would swap it for year round sunshine anyday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
