Just to say we got snow down here for the first time this year!! And woopy dah, It lasted all of 1hr and 10 mins, I tried to capture it on my camera phone, but missed!! Just thought i would say. Anybody else got any in Britain yet?
Not in Britain though, but we have had quite a bit around Copenhagen, Denmark. Funny how a cold white material that consists of water can put you in such a christmacy mood. Merry Christmas to all.
in the land of Oz on the south coast of NSW we are having a heat wave. No snow here. Yes and a Merry Christmas to all. A barby, a swim and a fish...What more could you want for Christmas? Our sand is white. Maybe that counts for something.
Melbourne was 39 degrees today.... so the snow would have been welcome to keep the beers cold.... But much prefer the heat.
We got some here in London! Pretty and starting to settle on the roof tops but I have to drive to the airport today to drop some friends off (not me driving thankfully! just get to enjoy the ride). We get to borrow their car for the service of dropping off and picking up so a pretty good deal really but the snow makes the roads dangerous and slow going. oh well
Maybe we should get down to the bookies to bet on a white christmas!
Hi, I think I jumped ahead of myself a bit! evidentely it is going to chuck it down with snow tomorrow, I hope my new boots are up to the job, or else I will be on my backside as usual. I have got a habit of falling over when it snows. Not used to it, thats the trouble. and to everybody in Australia, oh you lucky lucky people, can we swop?
The Isle of Thanet (where I live) hasn't had any snow yet. It's the easternmost tip of Kent and is only 70 miles from London, but often has completely different weather. Last year when we had snow, there was only a light dusting in Thanet but the rest of Kent (and London) was completely snow-bound.
This tendency to remain snow-free is one of Thanet's unsung virtues, IMO. I hate snow - it's slippery and if I have to walk in it, I nearly always fall over!
This is just to say, no I did'nt fall over just yet, but it is melting now anyway. And I still want to go to Australia!!

Three white men were recently convicted of chasing down and murdering a black man who had the audacity to appear in their neighborhood. A year ago or more they might have gotten away with it.Today there is a report of another white father and son team shooting at a black FedEx driver at least...

When I was out shopping yesterday no one had on jackets here in central Texas. In fact, many many people were in shorts as we had really warm temperatures. I ran the air conditioner in my truck coming home! A cold front we were expecting blew in early this morning and we are now having SNOW...

Unbelievable, but I really see snow falling...The last time it snowed here was end of January this year. Then all this huge city was forced to a standstill - very little or no transport, barely live public services and lots of injuries. Just because it was the first time in about 25 years London...
