judygram Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Ah lovely snow Lyn, I just love the kind that sticks to every branch and twig, very lovely until it starts to melt then its not pretty anymore. Wow what bloody weather you are having, enjoy it while it lasts. Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.
Luvparrots Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Lovely pictures Lyn!!!! What beautiful country!!! And no Jill, I traded the beer (I always have lots:laugh: :laugh:) for the coffee!!!!
JillyBeanz Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Well, overnight - more snow! The temperature on my car computer this morning read - 11 at some points on the way to work - I have never seen it that cold! I was going to snap a picture - but didn't think it was safe to do so, considering the driving conditions (yes, couldn't face the bus today)!!! I'm now starting to worry about the wildlife - what are those poor things doing for their dinner? I'm trying to help though! AND - when all of this snow SUDDENLY melts - there's going to be the ensuing floods - I can just see it now. Lovely pictures Lyn - I love the top one (and where did you get that blue sky from!!!!) :laugh:
pearllyn Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks - I love it when it's all fluffy like this, I'm dreading the melt too tho Jill - mud, mud and more mud!! Last night I dreamt that it rained all night and when we got up the snow was gone - When I woke I had high hopes!! Alas it wasn't to be!! More snow and freezing fog just offshore!! I also dreamt I received a white dove in the post. Don't supppose that'll happen either! :unsure:
Joolesgreyuk Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Well it seems our weather is making headlines around the world, I know it has been on German news as well as Australian news and I'm sure many other countries as well. Wednesday night in Benson, Oxfordshire the temperature fell to -18 making it the coldest place in the UK, my son lives there. Here in the south west we have more snow forecast for the weekend, today it isn't going to get above 0 even though it is a sunny day. I think many people are now making an extra effort (Bernie excluded ;-)) to get to work as the novelty of being home has worn off and we all need to earn a living. Stay safe everyone.
pearllyn Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Well we're only -6 today but it's to get colder here tonight. The water in our kitchen sink was frozen this morning! Oh dear!! I won't be able to do the dishes!!!:ohmy: :whistle:
Supernova Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 -4C today, getting warmer now. Fanastic pics Lyn. Julie I dont need to go to work because there is no work :woohoo: Nobody needs a crane now, we have 12 in our yard and no work for them because to take a vehicle out in this weather that weighs in excess of 50 tons is madness, so I stay at home :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:<br><br>Post edited by: Supernova, at: 2010/01/08 17:22
katana600 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 How nice for you Lyn that the skies were perfectly colored for your beautiful photography. This is my best photo, LOL.
JillyBeanz Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Ha Ha Ha! That's fab Dee - the next shot should be a braver one - perhaps you in a bikini? :laugh: I've been out and cleared the path (again) and knocked the solid ice from my car's wheel arches (again) and cleaned the snow and ice from the top of the rubbish bins (again).....Gosh - this is getting tedious!!!! :woohoo:
katana600 Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 That would have to go in Bernie's funny farm room. I would swim in the lake before the ice melts though. Not for long.... long enough to convince the boys to jump in behind me just to weed out the ones with weak hearts. Then, I married the only one who didn't cry. LOL:woohoo:

katana600 Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Poor guy has spent the past thirty years trying to keep up. He knew what he was getting into... while we were dating, he was getting stung by a swarm of bees and I locked the car doors so he couldn't get in. He was a crazy man. Someone had to drive to the emergency room! See, I saved him. Oh the things he has seen.<br><br>Post edited by: katana600, at: 2010/01/08 23:20
Luvparrots Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Just too funny!!!!! :woohoo: {Feel-good-0002006E}
JillyBeanz Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Ha Ha! Hilarious Dee ~ that poor, poor husband of yours!!!! :woohoo: :woohoo:
Supernova Posted January 9, 2010 Author Posted January 9, 2010 Men are not appreciated any more for there toughness. You wait Dee till you get a man's cold you have no idea how this Snow can affect us.
Joolesgreyuk Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Pictures on the news this morning of southern Spain covered in a blanket of snow and still snowing, apparently this is unheard of. Scary weather!

Scary weather! We have a temperature feature on our desk top which compares that of home with that of the village in Spain where we go on holiday. It is showing 2 degrees in Southern Spain at the minute!! That bloody snow better clear by July Julie!!! :laugh:

Joolesgreyuk Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Lovely picture Jill. The good news is that parcel force have finally arrived this morning (yes a Sunday!!!) with Beau's birthday goodies, better late than never I suppose, he won't know the difference, he will just get spoiled a second day! :laugh: It's snowing this morning and has been for hours, it's very light so far though and so not doing too much on the ground. I've been feeding and watering the wild birds these past few days, something I don't do very often. I don't think the weather is going to improve any time soon.
Luvparrots Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 You are all making me feel so guilty!!!! It's only raining gobs here! But your landscapes are just gorgeous so thanks for the beautiful pictures!!!!
