Things are brighter today. And now I just need a little lie down.

Heavy snow was forecast for yesterday and lots of things got cancelled, including the last day of the Lincoln Christmas Market. Had about half an inch which then melted. Snowed again last night - another half an inch but this has stayed and frozen. We escaped - it all seemed to go to the midlands and south.
I am playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order!

the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

A few inches of the white stuff outside. Soooo pretty! But, cold "af" (as the young folks say) and the heater had problems so the house got pretty cold but it's on a slow upswing now. Temps are supposed to go down to single digits F tonight.

It's a uniquely English thing (isn't it?) that when two people meet in brief passing they remark on the weather before moving on. I guess it's because we have so much of it here - which again is I'm thinking a particularly British phrase, to have 'a lot of weather'. It means that the weather is either particularly rough/boisterous or changeable when used as an interchange between two people.
All that being said, we've had a lot of weather here in the UK in recent weeks; it's been cold, mild, wet, dry, windy and calm - and that in the space of but a few days. It may be entirely natural, it may be the end of the world as we know it, but damn it makes planning anything difficult!
