Funny commodity, Snow, as a kid, my mother couldn't drag me indoors away from the stuff; now I have to be dragged out into it.  As a kid, Me, the toboggan and the dog, spent hours outside in the snow.......only to spend ages, when I came in, soaking my feet in a bowl of warm water to thaw them out. Several years ago, down here, I left for work at 7.00 am and was back home at 11.00 am. My other half asked what I was doing home, I told her I'd only made it 2 miles and got stuck in a " white out " with everybody else; I'd phoned work and they told me to go home..........it had taken me the rest of the 4 hours to get there. Our village has been cut of several times over the last 20 years.......these bones aren't getting any younger and like it warm these days.
