OK, a very unusual occurance today, snow in Andreas, about 5 inches - all roads out of the village are impassable - mostly due to the local car driving skills....:mad:.....so can;t get to work.

So....as you do.....:D

This is the sort of light fluffy snow Mike has been longing for, so 'Snowlough.com plc' can do some real work.....usually if we get snow it's wet and heavy, and not much of it! You can acutully see the snow being ploughed off in this action shot!

May I be very nosey and ask where you are located?

If it's a secret [not on your profile], then perhaps you could PM me. I promise not to tell.

Some great piccies guys. I thought you said it didn't snow there...
Shame they had to change the name to Isle of Person though. Doesn't have the same ring to it somehow. Never mind we don't want to offend anyone do we?:rofl:

No, it doesn't snow here.......ahmmmm.

That's why the rock is at a standstill today - no schools, no mail, lots of crashes....no work for me either, roads closed here, marooned in the North!

I had to trek to work in the snow as I only live mile away or loose a day's holiday - took 40 minutes !
