Down south. I avoid South if I can, living where I do is too South for me!

Not a terrible amount of snow here Nr.Bedworth in Warwickshire and in the Midlands in general. That's a good thing as I have to go to hospital in Birmingham tomorrow, then another trip to Birmingham for the Aston Villa vs. Doncaster Rovers FA Cup replay match on Wednesday.

No worries matey !

Here's the original and full sized version, you can adjust it better for your desktop then.

I actually went to just take a picture of the field the sheep were in, they all rushed over to see me when I approached as I guess they thought I was the farmer bringing them their food !



I live in North Wales, about 4 miles from Llandudno and Conwy near the coast. The mountains are right behind my house.

I loved KLF, where did they go?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_KLF

Detailed Wikipedia article on the KLF for you! I have included an excerpt:

A single from the original album was released, however: "Kylie Said to Jason, an electropop record featuring references to Todd Terry, Rolf Harris, Skippy the Bush Kangaroo and BBC comedy programme The Good Life. In reference to that song, Drummond and Cauty noted that they had worn "Pet Shop Boys infatuations brazenly on [their] sleeves".

I hadn't remembered this quote from the KLF, but it links nicely back to PSB!

Aye, I am indeed.

Yorkshire folk love Yorkshire, even if they unfortunately don't live there ( ). It is 'God's own country' after all!

I spend as much time as I can in Donny, though that tends to be solely watching the mighty Rovers at the moment.

I just don`t know why I assumed that you live in England. Beautiful scenery where you live anyway.

Well, it's about a half hour drive to England, so it's more or less the same.

I went into work today, only to be sent home. Hooray!

cheers Redsock

Took me three hours to get home from work on Monday because of the snow.It would normally only take 30-40 mins
However, we were sent home from work at lunchtime on Tuesday and an hour early today!!
Dublin airport was closed today for a few hours and lot of flights were cancelled.We get a sprinkling of snow here and the whole place shuts down!

Neil and Janet in the snow! (not this year). About 30 seconds in. Sorry I know that this is this is an off topic thread but dragging PSB's back in!

They just said on the news that this weekend, New South Wales (Australia),
will be the hottest place on earth. Official predicted temps in western NSW
towns between 45C and 48C. Death toll in South Australia now 70. Unprecedented.

Please do your bit to stop Global Warming.

Yup, if everyone keeps their refrigerator and freezer doors open, we'll soon have it fixed ........

I live east of L.A. California and we only get snow in the mountains and some passes on the coldest of rains, I happen to live at the bottom of a hilly neighborhood and I hit 30-38f all of the time on cold clear nights, a dozen or so nights a year I hit below 32f, So i bought a snow making machine from http://www.snowathome.com and make snow several times a year, I have to be at least 29f and colder to make it, one week in 2007 I was able to make snow for 7 days straight and had the machine on at least 12-14 hours a night, I had snow up to my waist, was pretty cool.

If some of you live in areas where the conditions are proper and don't get snow you can make your own.
