amberdreams | Snowmageddon is nearly over

Dizz just reminded me I took some photos in the snow because I thought those of you who regularly suffer proper winters with 6ft drifts might find this amusing. Plus, town did look pretty!

The sun came out and I kitted up for a walk in the park. By the time I managed to get into my snow boots and multiple layers the blizzard was back but the park was chocker with Brits with toboggans/sleds. Because one thing we love doing apart from moaning about how cold it is and how no transport runs the minute it snows, is playing in the stuff.

I'm not sure this chap even had a toboggan...

Meanwhile, the tropical palm monsters await the arrival of Dr Who

At the top of the hill, modern art meets cold weather front

Our 16th century mansion in the park in the snow

St Margaret's church - hey, this would make a good Christmas card! LOL

Then I walked down into town and the blooming sun came back out! Dammit.This is St Lawrence's church, which is now a cafe.
