Brilliant. We have only had snow like that twice in 8 years. Frost, yes, but not snow. Hope daughter is ok.
PS I like the wry grin!

Well, Eric , as you can see .........just about thawed by the time I read the manual and got the digi camera up and running!! ::) But certainly caused absolute havoc on the roads last night!!
Daughter and friend were fine ...more concerned about missing midnight hugs and kisses from certain admirers!! ::) ;) ;D

What a fab snowman and pic, keeping my fingers crossed that we get some of the white stuff in Essex so we can have a go as well ::)
Well done you, for putting on a new pic for 2004.
Happy New Year

Oh...Tim!!........how could you berate my
lovey-dovey
animated symbol... winging it's way across the cyber waves, conveying a most sincere message to one and all!! ;) ;D
btw..Tim, how canny of you !! Up here in the wilds we
DO
have a wind '
farm
' !! As one approaches over the brow of the hill........monstrous, metallic albatross type wings loom into view 'twixt field and sky........extremely
surreal
!!
Foggy today...but here's a pic anyway ( slightly enhanced!! ).....sorry, couldn't fit all
15
of them in!
