Oh dear

Today I headed back to Darlington for the weekend as it was my aunts 60th birthday and she was holding a party at a hotel about an hour away. When I hit Newcastle on the train, it started to snow quite heavily but I thought nothing of it. However, by the time I had got off the train and been driven home, there was lots of snow. The roads to the hotel were closed and lots of guests were stuck halfway (thankfully we hadn't set off yet). The party was therefore cancelled and those who could went to my aunt's house instead. It was still a lovely evening but was really disappointing - and what a shame for the money spent on the dinner and hotel rooms to be wasted!
