Possibly had enough of the snow already
Having spent the last four days up North in Yorkshire, I have had the pleasure of playing in the snow and eventually getting bored of seeing it.

Snow, bringing communities together for centuries (probably)
I’ve really enjoyed both seeing and experiencing how the community has come together over the past few days, ever since the first day of snow on Wednesday.
Last night I attempted to drive home form work, which was going as well as expected until I turned on to the road where I live. In previous times when snow had fallen our road had been gritted as it has a bit of an incline and is used as a through road to local schools, but not this time. more…
