Snowmaggedon

If you don’t live in UK you have probably seen it on the news... whole country is snowed in and actually stopped. 

Schools been cancelled so is St David’s Day and World’s book day... 

and it’s stay inside read a book and cuddle with pets kind of weather... unless you have to brave it and go to work like my hubby for example. Even if only for an hour... or you have a small child who turns out is a very big fan of snow! 

The joy of running into the snow drift. Jumping! Picking it up and throwing high in the air! 

Wonderful! 

And we are properly dressed, these trousers are suitable for Russian winter acually. And speaking of Russia, don’t think Egg remembers the snow when he was in Russia. He was far too young to remember. 

But I have mixed feeling about it all... 

I understand that UK is unprepared to deal with snow, and that equipment is super expensive. Like we have winter tires, but it would too expensive for here. While back in motherland it’s a legal requirement for winter driving. But people who speed in these conditions should be arrested! Yes I said it! You can’t drive on this so why would you speed?! 

And grit... gritting everything isn’t a solution. The solution is to clear it. Grit would like make sludge and will ice over in the night ... 

bBet we all came together. Neighbours are checking on each other, people pushing cars out, there were even reposts of owners 4*4 are driving NHS staff to work! 

My winter boots from Jack Woolfskin are finely wet I am done with snow for this year. Also all my daffodils froze and died... 

So now I have a wish list for snowy weather:

Snow shovel 

Sledge 

Stay warm!
