Drifting along

And here is what we woke up to this morning. A 6ft snowdrift blocking the car park. My car is stuck. We was planning on going to the Ramsbottom Chocolate Festival today, and I SO wish I'd left my car at the bottom of the hill, so we could still get out and about.

I've never seem anything like this before. All along the road where these huge snowdrifts caused by the ferocious winds. It felt as though we were in The Shining and cut off from all outside contact! We weren't, obviously, but it certainly had a feeling of that.

I wrapped the kids up in as many woollens as we posses and walked into the village for provisions. Evie got a little irritable with the cold but I was proud of them all for getting back up the 'hill of death' with the howling winds and arctic conditions.

I think we may be stuck at home for a while to come...
