There's a lot of snow here now but nothing like they get in North America. In one storm they had over four feet of snow (on the level). When I posted the thread we'd had very little and they were going on about a big freeze as if it had been going on for months.

Since then it's been drifting. They should have been better prepared for it as they've been waffling on about it for a fortnight now.

I'd be a bit concerned if it was the beginning of December but it's the beginning of March so it won't be here that long now.
