It's snowing

We woke to a thin covering of white stuff.  And it's snowed pretty much continuously all day, though it has been very fine, and at times quite sleety, so not much cover, thank goodness.  I was waiting (in vain) for it to stop so I could go for a wander round the garden and get some pretty photos.  

It was still snowing this evening when I finished doing stuff in the studio.  Fortunately W, who had by this time lit the wood burner, had switched on the outside lights, so I could carefully pick my way back to the house, with the basket of ironed washing.  You can't really tell from the photo, but there's a slight slope down from the studio to the patio - potentially treacherous in icy conditions.

It's still snowing now, and more snow is forecast over the next few days - that will probably result in further delays on the delivery of dowels for my macramé projects from the workshop at the bottom of the garden, as W needs to visit B&Q for supplies, but will not be going out on snowy roads unnecessarily.  There are complaints already on the local Facebook page about the condition of the roads.
