...falling through the air......

Got in from the quiz at around 11...Phil dropped me at the end of the road......I took two steps...and the snow started......home is 50 metres from the corner....I was white from head to foot when I got to the door.

I took this shot 10 minutes after getting in....and it's still falling! The weather forecast says it will keep going all night...maybe I'll get the snow text in the morning.

We lost in the quiz tonight....but it was a good match....nip and tuck all the way...and we like the Hare and Hounds....good beer and delicious hot pork butties and chips for supper.....so we didn't feel too bad. We can't win the League.....but we should have a good handicap for the Cup!
